Turkey's quiet push to entrench itself near Aleppo forced Israel's hand. The strike worked, and now is not the time to accept limits on Israeli freedom of action – in this neighborhood, people tend to listen only once actions start speaking.

Inside Israel's intelligence room: The unfolding drama amid Turkey's secret military inroads in Syria

Ankara's covert military influence in Syria has been on Israel's radar for over a year – whether it's APCs given as a "gift" to Al-Sharaa or Turkey's aerial capabilities. The strike on Abu al-Duhur signals an end to Jerusalem's containment strategy.

The IMF projects Iran's economy will shrink sharply this year, contracting somewhere between 5.4% and 6.1%. Nominal GDP has already plunged around 29% from 2017, and the dollar now buys 2 million rials. However, a parallel, sanctions-proof economy may be maintaining the regime. Only one thing would make the regime buckle.

AI has learned to trick us. This could end like Chernobyl

Lies, circumvented safeguards and secret instructions for operating under our noses. From bots that developed coded language to agents that concealed information, a string of incidents is raising fears that humanity is losing control of artificial intelligence.
