Donald Trump threatened to deploy Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to US airports on Monday if congressional Democrats do not immediately agree to fund airport safety. Transportation Security Administration personnel are set to miss a second full paycheck on 27 March amid a partial government shutdown in its 36th day as lawmakers clash over funding for the Department of Homeland Security, the parent agency for TSA and ICE. “I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE Agents to the Airports where they will do Security like no one has ever seen before,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Saturday, in response to the airport staff shortages which have disrupted travel. More than 400 TSA workers have quit since the partial shutdown began on 14 February, DHS said. ICE agents are not specifically trained for airport security, which is TSA’s domain. Catching up? Here’s what happened on 20 March 2026.
If everything goes according to plan, Indonesia will be in possession of an aircraft carrier come Armed Forces Day on October 5. When that happens, it will become only the second country in Southeast Asia, after Thailand , to operate such a vessel. But this does not mean Indonesia’s maritime power will increase significantly. The issue here is prestige, not combat power. The warship in question is...
If everything goes according to plan, Indonesia will be in possession of an aircraft carrier come Armed Forces Day on October 5. When that happens, it will become only the second country in Southeast Asia, after Thailand , to operate such a vessel. But this does not mean Indonesia’s maritime power will increase significantly. The issue here is prestige, not combat power. The warship in question is the Italian navy’s Giuseppe Garibaldi . The 14,000-tonne flat-top was commissioned in 1985 and equipped with a mix of AV-8B Harrier II short-take-off-and-vertical-landing fighter aircraft and anti-submarine warfare helicopters. Advertisement The carrier saw action in Kosovo, Afghanistan and Libya, and took part in several humanitarian and disaster relief (HADR) operations before being decommissioned in 2024. The following year, the Italian government agreed to transfer it to Indonesia. A group of Indonesian sailors will soon depart for Italy to sail the Garibaldi home. Advertisement
As tensions around Iran intensify, a potential disruption to global fertiliser supply chains is raising concerns about food production worldwide. But for China, an unusual advantage is coming into focus: the ability to predict grain output more than six months in advance with striking accuracy.

As tensions around Iran intensify, a potential disruption to global fertiliser supply chains is raising concerns about food production worldwide. But for China, an unusual advantage is coming into focus: the ability to predict grain output more than six months in advance with striking accuracy. That capability – refined over decades – could allow Beijing to move early, reshaping risk into strategic leverage. Advertisement The Strait of Hormuz, a vital artery for global energy and commodity flows, has emerged as a key vulnerability. Roughly a third of global urea exports pass through the corridor, linking fertiliser markets directly to geopolitical stability. Urea production depends heavily on natural gas, meaning any sustained disruption to energy supplies or shipping routes can quickly drive up fertiliser costs. For farmers , higher input prices often translate into reduced application rates – and ultimately lower yields. Advertisement The impact is already being felt across Asia. India, which imports a large share of its fertilisers from the Middle East, faces mounting pressure ahead of its planting season. Indonesia, reliant on Gulf sulphur for phosphate fertilisers, is also exposed.

And long-term investors have reaped the rewards, as the company's $1.2 trillion market cap highlights. If you had invested $10,000 in this electric vehicle (EV) stock 10 years ago, here's how much you'd have today. Tesla shares have climbed 2,430% in the past decade (as of March 19). This monster gain turned a $10,000 starting investment into over $253,000 today. Despite the stock trading 22% off its peak, the performance has been impressive, crushing the overall market. Shareholders deserve this return, as they've had to endure significant drawdowns on multiple occasions. Revenue growth, without a doubt, was the key tailwind. Tesla's sales rose from $4 billion in 2015 to $95 billion last year, as it ramped up production and deliveries of its EVs.

Several papers are leading on a claim from Israel that Iran has developed ballistic missiles that could be capable of striking London. The Sunday edition of the Telegraph quoted the Israel Defence Forces (IDF), which said that the "Iranian terrorist regime poses a global threat" and pointed to Iran's attempted attack on a US-UK military base in Diego Garcia earlier this week as evidence that it could now hit London, Paris and Berlin. The paper notes that the British public were not immediately informed of the attempted strike "despite the significance", and says the government has still not confirmed the timing of the foiled attack.
