Fallout is growing over the deadly U.S. attack on an alleged Venezuelan drug boat in September with the Pentagon now facing calls to release video of the controversial second strike that killed survivors of the first hit. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is also facing new scrutiny for the information he shared on a Signal group chat in March about a pending military operation in Yemen. NBC’s Peter Alexander reports for TODAY from the White House.

Dec. 4, 2025, 6:25 AM ESTBy Jennifer JettHONG KONG — A massive fire that tore through a Hong Kong apartment complex, killing more than 150 people, has ignited an upsurge in public anger that is testing Beijing’s control of the Chinese territory. The Nov. 26 fire at Wang Fuk Court in the northern district of Tai Po has deeply shaken Hong Kong’s population amid accusations of corrupt business practices and failures in government oversight. The blaze was the city’s first major manmade disaster since national security laws were imposed after huge anti-government protests in 2019, and there have already been several reported arrests and official warnings against “anti-China” forces accused of sowing discord.On Wednesday, Chinese national security authorities in Hong Kong issued their second warning in a week, saying that “external hostile forces” were using the fire to try to “recreate the chaos” of 2019 under the pretext of “petitioning for the people.”“Those who oppose China and disrupt Hong Kong will be punished even if they are far away,” the statement said.Investigators say the five-alarm fire spread rapidly because of substandard mesh netting that covered bamboo scaffolding erected around the buildings for renovations, as well as highly flammable polystyrene boards that were sealed to the windows. Residents also said fire alarms failed to go off.

Dec. 6, 2025, 8:01 AM ESTBy Freddie ClaytonLONDON — The Tower of London has been closed after a video appeared to show activists smearing food on a display case containing one of Britain’s crown jewels.Police said four protesters had been arrested following the incident just before 10 a.m. (5 a.m. ET) on Saturday, after reports that food had been thrown onto the case containing the State Crown.“Officers worked closely with City of London Police and security officers and four people have been arrested on suspicion of criminal damage. They have taken into custody,” London’s Metropolitan Police said.“The Tower has been closed to the public while the police investigation continues.”Footage posted on X showed a group gathered around the display case before hurling food and dousing one side of the case in yellow liquid. “Britain is broken, we come here to the jewels of the nation to take back power,” one of the protestors says.Take Back Power, which describes itself as a civil resistance group, posted the video on X and claimed responsibility for the protest.”Two Take Back Power supporters covered the glass containing the crown jewels in custard and apple crumble,” read a statement on their website, which refers to the organization as a “new nonviolent civil-resistance group.”The website calls for the U.K. government to “establish a permanent citizen’s assembly – a House of the People, which has the power to tax extreme wealth and fix Britain.”The case contained the Imperial State Crown, one of the crown jewels kept in the high-security museum at the Tower of London, one of the city’s oldest landmarks.King Charles III wore the Imperial State Crown as he left Westminster Abbey following his coronation in 2023. It was made for the coronation of George VI in 1937, closely modeled on a crown made for Queen Victoria in 1838.Freddie ClaytonFreddie Clayton is a freelance journalist based in London.
