The hamster spun nonstop until it finally slowed down and climbed out, its fur slightly rubbed from the friction. The owner said the setup was made for fun, though viewers reminded to prioritize pet safety.

Israeli Outpost Expansion Sparks Border Tensions - Lebanon

Israeli soldiers take a break from construction work at an illegal Israeli outpost in Houla, southern Lebanon, on July 31, 2025. Positioned directly adjacent to a United Nations facility, the site has seen ongoing expansion activity, including the presence of armored construction vehicles such as a Caterpillar D9 bulldozer. The outpost, which is not officially recognized and lies beyond Israel’s internationally accepted border, highlights escalating tensions along the Lebanon-Israel frontier. The expansion has drawn condemnation from Lebanese officials and concern from international observers over violations of sovereignty and proximity to UN infrastructure. The buildup underscores the fragile security situation in the area, where incidents along the Blue Line often spark diplomatic and military friction.

China: Giant Fireball Lights Up Night Sky as Suspected Meteor Falls in Guangdong

This is the rare moment that a suspected meteor streaked across the sky in Guangdong, dazzling local residents as a massive fireball suddenly lit up the darkness like daylight. On May 28, 2025, in Yangjiang, Guangdong, a loud boom was heard as a brilliant fireball, resembling a giant rock, tore through the sky and exploded in a bright flash, captured on dashcam.　The sudden blaze turned the entire night sky into near-daylight for a few seconds, and onlookers were left stunned. Experts explained that such fireballs occur when a meteoroid enters Earth’s atmosphere and burns up due to friction, creating a bright meteor. If parts of the object survived the fiery descent and reached the ground, they were classified as meteorites. The video ended with the sky gradually fading back into darkness as the fireball disappeared from view.
