The Trump administration is pausing some weapons shipments to Ukraine, including air defense missiles, following a review of military spending and American support to foreign countries, a senior White House official told CNN.

Those fears materialized in March 2025 when Trump imposed a week-long freeze on all American military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine. The flow soon resumed, but Trump's frustration has only deepened as U.S.-brokered peace talks floundered.

On Tuesday the White House said that it had cut off some weapons deliveries to Ukraine in order "to put America's interests first".

The president reportedly called Rupert Murdoch to complain about Fox News coverage and to ask about the Israel-Iran conflict.

President Donald Trump on Monday will sign an executive order terminating U.S. sanctions on Syria, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters. The move follows through on Trump's decision in May to unwind the measures to help Syria rebuild after a devastating civil war.

The White House said it would monitor the new Syrian government's actions including "taking concrete steps toward normalising ties with Israel"

President Donald Trump said on Tuesday Israel had agreed "to the necessary conditions to finalize" a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza during which efforts will be made to end the U.S. ally's war in the Palestinian enclave.
