How Ukraine's New Push in Kursk Can Change the War

Jan 7, 2025 | thecipherbrief.com | Glenn Corn

OPINION — On 29 September, Lebanese caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati announced that his country was “committed to Resolution 1701” – a 2006 U.N. ceasefire plan – and that the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) was ready to “implement it.” With the Israeli armed forces decimating the leadership of Lebanese Hezbollah and now moving ground troops into Southern Lebanon to further target Hezbollah, Mikati appears to be suggesting that the LAF is ready to accept responsibility for securing Lebanon’s...

OPINION — Every night I am awoken by air alerts from Kyiv. A few months back, while traveling to that city I put the “Air Alert App” on my cell phone to keep track of attacks on the city by the Russians.
