U.S. charges former senator over Haiti President Killing
The U.S. has charged a former senator following the assassination of Haiti’s President last year
51-year-old John Joel Joseph made his first U.S. court appearance on Monday afternoon after being extradited from Jamaica.
He was charged with conspiring to commit murder or kidnapping outside the U.S. and providing material support resulting in death.
He becomes the third person charged in relation to what authorities say was a wide-reaching plot involving at least 20 Colombian citizens and several dual nationals.
Haiti’s President, Jovenel Moïse was murdered in July last year amid a worsening political and economic crisis.
Joseph was accused of helping “obtain vehicles and attempted to obtain firearms to support the operation against the president,” according to the U.S. Justice Department.
They also claim he attended meetings with “co-conspirators” that intended to kill President Moise.
Joseph is a well-known politician and critic of Moise’s Tet Kale Party–and will face life imprisonment if he is convicted of the charges against him.
Along with Joseph, the two individuals that the U.S. has charged include businessman Rodolphe Jaar and former Colombian soldier Mario Antonio Palacios.
Both men were accused of being involved in the assassination.
There are over 40 other individuals that are suspected to be involved in Moise’s killing.
Since the president’s murder, violence has surged in Hati.
Rival gangs are currently battling for control of neighbourhoods in and around the country’s capital.
A statement on May 4 estimates that 39 people have been killed and over 68 injured.
Roughly 9,000 people have been displaced.
Satellite images reveal that Iran has buried all three tunnel entrances at its Isfahan nuclear complex. Analysts say the move mirrors defensive preparations taken before U.S. airstrikes devastated the facility last year, with no vehicle or personnel activity visible around the entrances.
The burial appears aimed at limiting damage from potential airstrikes and complicating any ground raid targeting enriched uranium stored in the underground facility. Experts suggest equipment or materials may have been moved into the tunnels for protection, though this remains unconfirmed.
The fortification comes amid ongoing U.S.-Iran tensions. President Trump has demanded Iran curb its nuclear program, warning of military action, while Tehran insists halting uranium enrichment is unacceptable. Recent indirect talks in Oman showed little progress toward a new deal.

Trump hints at military pressure as U.S. and Iran resume nuclear talks
US-Iran restart nuclear talks in Oman amid cautious optimism, while Trump considers military escalation and Israel demands stricter missile terms.
US-Iran restart nuclear talks in Oman amid cautious optimism, while Trump considers military escalation and Israel demands stricter missile terms.
The United States and Iran have returned to the negotiating table in Oman, marking a fresh attempt to ease escalating nuclear tensions between the two long-time rivals. President Donald Trump described the talks as promising, suggesting momentum toward further discussions.
Iran’s Foreign Minister echoed cautious optimism, calling the meetings a positive first step while acknowledging deep-seated trust issues remain unresolved. At the heart of the talks is a major sticking point — the White House’s insistence that Iran dismantle its nuclear capability entirely.
Iran, however, maintains it has a sovereign right to enrich uranium, setting the stage for difficult negotiations ahead as both sides test whether diplomacy can hold.
