Many action actors have reached the point where their timeless roles are taken on by newer faces; for instance, Tom Hardy has stepped into Mel Gibson’s shoes as Mad Max while Paul Mescal will be the latest Gladiator, taking over from Russell Crowe. But not all icons of the genre are ready to relinquish their hold. Harrison Ford has asserted that Indiana Jones will retire with him, and Tom Cruise has his sights set on tackling missions until he’s an octogenarian. Echoing this sentiment are Bad Boys duo Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, who earnestly believe the franchise could go on indefinitely.

But Lawrence chimed in humorously, “The back ain’t went out quite yet, so before we do that, we ain’t gonna pass it off just yet.”

Trump, known for his outspoken nature, did not hold back in his comments. He questioned the security measures in place and implied that the current administration may be mishandling the situation.

President Zelensky Issues Warning To U.S.A.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky issued a warning to his U.S. counterpart Joe Biden on Tuesday over his attendance at a Kyiv-led peace summit in Switzerland next month.
Biden's absence from the talks on June 15 and 16—which will be aimed at developing a common understanding of a path toward a just and lasting peace in Ukraine—would be like giving Russian President Vladimir Putin a standing ovation, Zelensky told reporters during a press briefing in Brussels, Belgium.
Washington has said that the U.S. will participate in the summit but hasn't said whether Biden will be attending. Bloomberg reported on May 23, citing people familiar with the matter, that the U.S. president will likely miss the event because it clashes with a campaign fundraiser in California.

Pentagon Suspends Aid Deliveries
The Pentagon said Tuesday that it has suspended the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza via its floating pier after separate mishaps in which four U.S. military vessels were beached, one U.S. service member was critically injured and sections of the structure were ripped free in bad weather.
The damage will require the U.S. military, with Israeli assistance, to disassemble pieces of the pier attached to the Gazan shore, rebuild them in the nearby Israeli port of Ashdod, then transport them back to the Gazan shore and reconnect them, said Sabrina Singh, a Pentagon spokeswoman. That process will take at least a week, temporarily eliminating the pier as an option to deliver humanitarian assistance to civilians in Gaza as Israel continues its months-long military campaign against the militant group Hamas.

How Old Mr. Miyagi Was In Karate Kid & When He Died
Mr. Miyagi was born on June 9, 1925, in Tomi Village Okinawa, Japan, where he learned the trade of fisherman and the art of karate from his father.
In The Karate Kid films, Pat Morita portrayed the iconic character of Mr. Miyagi, a wise and dry-witted mentor to both Daniel LaRusso and Julie Pierce. Mr. Miyagi was born on June 9, 1925, in Tomi Village Okinawa, Japan, where he learned the trade of fisherman and the art of karate from his father. Miyagi eventually immigrated to Hawaii, working as a farm laborer in the Hawaiian cane fields, where he met his wife. During the onset of World War II, Miyagi and his wife were placed in an internment camp, where he eventually chose to serve in the U.S. Army, ultimately receiving a Medal of Honor.
While overseas, his wife passed away along with his newborn child due to "complications arising during childbirth", while they were still interned. This devastating loss deeply affected him, and upon his return from war, he struggled to fully recover. Miyagi transitioned into becoming a maintenance worker for an apartment complex and built the Japanese garden in the back of his home, which is shown in Cobra Kai. This is where viewers were first introduced to Mr. Miyagi, marking the beginning of his unforgettable journey in The Karate Kid franchise.

US Gaza pier knocked out
Humanitarian organisations have warned that the amount of aid reaching Palestinians in Gaza is only a fraction of what is required to meet the needs of its population.
A temporary pier built by the US military to deliver aid to Gaza has been damaged by heavy seas and will take at least a week to be repaired, according to US officials.
US forces began building the floating pier - which is attached to Gaza's shoreline by a temporary causeway - several weeks ago.
The causeway portion of the project has now reportedly broken off and will have to be repaired before being returned to its position.
Humanitarian organisations have warned that the amount of aid reaching Palestinians in Gaza is only a fraction of what is required to meet the needs of its population.
The pier, which was first announced by US officials in March, is comprised of two main components: a large floating dock made up of steel segments and a two-lane, 1,800ft (548m) causeway and pier.
The causeway part of the project is composed of a series of interconnected, 40ft (12m) steel pieces linked together and attached to shore.
On Tuesday, US officials told CBS, the BBC's US partner, that a portion of the causeway broke away in heavy seas.
While it is tethered to Gaza's shoreline, the piece will need to be removed and taken to the Israeli port of Ashod to be repaired before it can be re-attached to the causeway and back in action.
Mick Mulroy, a former deputy assistant secretary of defence for the Middle East and one of the founders of Fogbow, a private firm involved in the Gaza pier plan, told the BBC that weather-related delays were "expected" to "pose challenges".
"But those challenges can be overcome, and the mission itself is worth the effort," he said. "People are in desperate need of aid and this is one means to deliver it."
On 17 May, the US military confirmed that the first shipments of humanitarian aid were delivered into Gaza via the pier, but in a separate incident last weekend four vessels supporting the pier became unmoored in "heavy sea states", beaching two of them.
