The 68-year-old avid hiker was last confirmed at his Northwest Heights residence around 10 a.m. on February 27, 2026, when a repairman spoke with him.

McCasland's past UFO consulting has fueled online theories, but authorities say no evidence points to foul play or his aerospace work, and a Silver Alert remains active due to health risks.

Key Takeaway

Retired Maj. Gen. William 'Neil' McCasland stepped out from his Albuquerque home and hasn't been seen since. His wife returned from an appointment just 54 minutes later to find him gone, phone and glasses left behind.

The two Gulf nations' foreign ministries labeled the strikes violations of international law and UN Resolution 1701, urging global pressure to stop Israel's actions amid the escalating Israel-Hezbollah clashes.

UN human rights experts echoed the criticism on March 12, decrying the assaults without mentioning Hezbollah's role, while online views split over perceived biases and hypocrisies.

Wilson announced the Coalition—Liberals and Nationals—will stand alone in the November 2026 state election, urging voters to preference them first against Labor's cost-of-living and corruption issues. Recent polls like RedBridge (28% Coalition, 24% One Nation) and others highlight One Nation's rise from voter frustration, eroding the Coalition's base in suburbs and regions. The move has drawn sharp criticism from right-leaning voices calling it reckless, while Labor warns of division; with preferences up to voters, the race stays fragmented and close on a 52-48 two-party edge.

Key Takeaway

Jess Wilson, Victoria's first female Liberal leader, drew a firm line: no deals with surging One Nation, even as polls show them neck-and-neck with her Coalition.

The U.S. approved deploying the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit from Japan, along with the USS Tripoli group, to the Middle East amid Operation Epic Fury airstrikes on Iranian sites that began February 28. Iranian forces hit 16 vessels with missiles, drones, and mines, carrying about 20% of global oil, prompting Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to promise sequential threat neutralization and safe transit. While the Marines, backed by F-35B jets and helicopters, focus on securing sea lanes without invading, allies like India and Turkey negotiate passages separately, as oil prices swing amid escalation risks and seven U.S. service member deaths.

Key Takeaway

Iran's strikes on ships in the Strait of Hormuz have killed eight seafarers and choked off tanker traffic through this vital oil chokepoint. The Pentagon is now sending over 2,000 Marines and warships to push back.
