A dramatic surge in iPhone prices may be on the horizon for American consumers, with some models potentially hitting $2,300, as a result of steep new tariffs unveiled by President Trump targeting imports from China and other major trade partners, industry experts caution.
The production cost for the iPhone 16 Pro with 256GB of storage is expected to leap from $550 to $820, TechInsights analyst Wayne Lam revealed to The Wall Street Journal.
That dramatic rise stems from a 54% tariff imposed on Chinese imports — a significant blow to Apple, which relies on China for assembling most of its devices, though components are sourced globally.

A 13-year-old child suddenly lost consciousness on Sunday while on the pedestrian bridge located on Route 4, directly across from Bar Ilan University. The incident occurred near a demonstration held by the Peleg Yerushalmi faction.
Emergency responders from Magen David Adom rushed to the location, provided immediate medical attention, and transported the boy in critical condition to Schneider Children’s Medical Center in Petach Tikva.
Upon arrival at the hospital, medical staff did all they could to stabilize him. Despite prolonged efforts, they were ultimately forced to pronounce him dead.

A barrage of ten rockets was fired from the Gaza Strip on Sunday night, triggering warning sirens across Ashkelon, Ashdod, and nearby towns.
The attack was claimed by Hamas, which said the rockets were launched from Deir al-Balah, a central Gaza location where Israeli forces have not yet conducted operations.
According to the IDF, “Following the sirens that sounded at 21:01-21:02 in the Lakhish area, approximately ten projectiles were identified crossing into Israeli territory from the Gaza Strip. Most of them were successfully intercepted. The details are under review.”

Top administration officials said Sunday that more than 50 countries targeted by President Donald Trump’s new tariffs have reached out to begin negotiations over the sweeping import taxes that have sent financial markets reeling, raised fears of a recession and upended the global trading system. The higher rates are set to be collected beginning Wednesday, ushering in a new era of economic uncertainty with no clear end in sight. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said unfair trade practices are not “the kind of thing you can negotiate away in days or weeks.” The United States, he said, must see “what the countries offer and whether it’s believable.” Trump, who spent the weekend in Florida playing golf, posted online that “WE WILL WIN.

A federal judge is for the second time ordering the Trump administration to return a Maryland man who was mistakenly sent to a notorious prison in El Salvador, blasting the U.S. government in a ruling Sunday that noted a now-suspended Justice Department lawyer admitted he didn’t know why the man was being held. The order from U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis reaffirms a ruling she gave days earlier, shooting down arguments that the government can’t facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia because he is no longer in U.S. custody. “As defendants acknowledge, they had no legal authority to arrest him, no justification to detain him, and no grounds to send him to El Salvador — let alone deliver him into one of the most dangerous prisons in the Western Hemisphere,” Xinis wrote.

Following a rocket barrage from Gaza, impacts are reported in Ashkelon, with damage caused to a road. There are no immediate reports of injuries.
