Apple and Samsung have been hit with a class-action lawsuit over claims that their phones expose users to radio frequency emissions up to 500 percent beyond federal limits.

The former chairman of psychiatry at Duke University said Sunday during an interview with CNN’s Brian Stelter that President Trump may be responsible for more deaths than Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin and Mao Zedong.
“Calling Trump crazy hides the fact that we’re crazy for having elected him and even crazier for allowing his crazy policies to persist,” Allen Frances, the author of “Twilight of American Sanity,” said on CNN’s “Reliable Sources.” “Trump is as destructive a person in this century as Hitler, Stalin and Mao were in the last century. He may be responsible for many more million deaths than they were. He needs to be contained, but he needs to be contained by attacking his policies, not his person.”

Gaza banks disbursed $10 million in Qatari cash to 100,000 families in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip Qatar on Sunday.

Iran has produced highly-accurate missiles which it has not publicized, Iranian Deputy Defense Minister General Qassem Taqizadeh said on Friday, according to the semi-official Fars news agency.
Taqizadeh did not provide details about the weapons.

The Israeli Army mocked a leading Iranian general on Twitter Sunday following an IAF airstrike in Syria that thwarted an attempted drone attack on Israel’s north.
“TO: Iranian Quds Force Commander Qassem Soleimani, RE: Last Night,” the tweet said, “’We will carry out a large-scale attack of killer drones on the ‘Zionist entity’ from Syria.’ It sounded good in your morning meeting, didn’t it?”
At the same time, details began to emerge about the background to the planned Iranian attack.
According to Israeli news website Mako, the failed attack was planned by Iranian operatives together with members of Shia militia groups. They were brought to Syria by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps’ Quds Force, which coordinates Iran’s terrorist operations abroad.

President Donald Trump conceded regret about his escalating trade war with China on Sunday morning before reversing course in the afternoon and saying he only wished he’d raised the tariffs higher.
It was a head spinning about-face after the president showed rare second thoughts on a key issue, even as White House officials said his comments had been “misinterpreted.”
“The president was asked if he had ‘any second thought on escalating the trade war with China.’ His answer has been greatly misinterpreted. President Trump responded in the affirmative – because he regrets not raising the tariffs higher,” press secretary Stephanie Grisham said.

Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi announced on Sunday that Qasem Soleimani, head of Iran’s elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), was “personally in charge” of executing a suicide drone attack operation against Israel.
“The attack was supposed to include several explosive drones against a number of targets [in Israel],” Kochavi said during military briefing on Sunday.
“The one who was personally in charge of leading and executing the attack is Qasem Soleimani. He funded, trained and prepared Shi’ite operatives who were supposed to execute the operation. We need to prepare for every possibility and we’ll do it in the best possible way,” the IDF chief added.
