Libya's rival governments in the east and west signed a roadmap today for nationwide elections in 2027, the Tripoli-based Presidential Council announced. The agreement, brokered after years of UN-led mediation with recent involvement from Trump envoy Masad Bolus, aims to replace the two competing administrations with a unified government.

EFES-2026 is Turkey's largest combined live-fire exercise of the year, bringing together more than 10,000 troops and observers from approximately 50 countries.

Tucker Carlson: “Was Iran on the verge of getting a nuclear weapon?”

Joe Kent: “No, they weren’t. Not in June either. The Iranians have had a religious ruling, a fatwa, against developing a nuclear weapon since 2004. That’s public knowledge, and we had no intelligence suggesting it was being ignored or about to be lifted.

The Iranians know the stakes in their region. Their strategy has been to maintain their nuclear program just enough, seeing what happened to Muammar Gaddafi in Libya when he gave up his nukes.”
