On this June 1, 2025, we remember.

On this day in 1792, the first public museum in the United States,

the Charleston Museum, opened its doors in South Carolina,

marking a significant step in the preservation and celebration of American history and culture.

Now for a look at World News.

On the eve of peace talks, Ukraine launched a major drone attack on Russian airbases deep in Siberia, targeting nuclear-capable bombers.

Monica Kelland has the details.

President Zelensky revealed the operation took over a year to prepare, marking one of the largest drone battles in the ongoing conflict.

The strike escalates tensions as both sides intensify military actions ahead of negotiations

aimed at ending the war. The attack highlights the growing use of drone technology in the

Ukraine-Russia conflict. Monica Kellen, Neural Newscast.

Next, on the political front.

In his early months in office, President Donald Trump has outlined plans for a large-scale

deportation effort targeting undocumented immigrants, describing it as potentially the

largest in U.S. history.

NNC's Cassandra Joyce reports.

Supporters argue this approach enhances national security and enforces immigration laws,

while critics contend it may strain community trust and public safety.

The debate reflects broader tensions over immigration policy, with some local police departments expressing concern that agreements with ICE could undermine their ability to protect communities effectively.

This remains a key point of contention in ongoing discussions.

In his annual State of the Nation address, Chilean President Gabriel Boricch announced plans to reduce

reliance on Israeli defense partnerships, citing concerns over recent violence in Gaza.

Here's Cassandra Joyce with more.

Boric's stance reflects a broader debate about balancing national security interests

with human rights considerations in foreign policy.

While some view this shift as a principal response to humanitarian issues,

others argue it could complicate Chile's defense strategy.

This position represents one perspective within ongoing discussions

about international alliances and conflict sensitivity.

Hundreds gathered in Kansas City to protest against Patriot Front, a group identified by some as promoting extremist views.

Supporters of the rally emphasized the importance of opposing hate-based organizations,

reflecting broader concerns about rising political polarization.

However, discussions around Patriot Front are part of ongoing debates on free speech and public safety.

This event highlights differing perspectives on how communities address controversial groups within the current political climate.

Labor is advocating increased defense spending, framing it as a way to create skilled jobs in regions like Barrow and Glasgow.

This approach, sometimes called military Keynesianism, reflects a shift in priorities, with aid budgets reduced to fund defence.

Supporters argue it boosts economic growth outside London, while critics contend investment in other sectors might yield greater social benefits.

The debate highlights ongoing tensions over balancing security and social spending.

In the world of technology today.

Chief information security officers are sharpening their strategies to address cybersecurity concerns at the boardroom level.

A new playbook highlights how CISOs can effectively communicate risks, align cybersecurity initiatives with business goals, and gain executive buy-in.

This approach helps bridge the gap between technical teams and leadership, ensuring stronger defenses and smarter investments in security.

In Business and Finance this hour.

Investing $500 monthly in an artificial intelligence-focused ETF could potentially grow to $156,000 over 10 years, according to analysis by The Motley Fool.

This growth projection surpasses returns from traditional indexes favored by investors like Warren Buffett.

While past performance doesn't guarantee future results,

AI ETFs are attracting attention for their potential in long-term investment portfolios

amid the rising influence of artificial intelligence in various industries.

Experts warn that advancements in artificial intelligence could lead to significant job losses across the United States.

As AI technology automates more tasks, many roles in sectors like manufacturing, customer service, and transportation may be at risk.

While AI promises efficiency and innovation, the potential impact on employment raises concerns about the need for workforce retraining and economic adjustment strategies to address these changes.
