Weapons being exported to war-torn Sudan despite UN Security Council arms embargo
Wednesday, 24 July 2024 A new report from Amnesty International has found that weapons and military hardware from Russia, China, Turkey and the UAE are being imported in large quantities into Sudan and diverted to Darfur despite a mandatory United Nations Security Council (UNSC) arms embargo from 2004.
In a last-minute move ahead of the 2025 elections, President Biden has extended temporary deportation protections for nearly 1 million migrants, including those from El Salvador, Sudan, Ukraine, and Venezuela. This action comes just days before Donald Trump re-enters the White House with promises to end these protections and push forward with mass deportations. As Trump gears up for a tougher immigration crackdown, Biden's decision could throw a wrench into Trump's plans. But with a history of court battles over similar policies, how long will these protections last? The immigration showdown in the U.S. is about to get even more intense.

Israeli officials have warned of a growing threat from Turkey's increasing support for Syrian factions, especially following Turkey’s strategic ambitions in the Middle East. The Nagel Commission report emphasizes that this could become an even greater risk to Israel than the ongoing concerns with Iran. Israel’s defense strategy is shifting, with recommendations to boost offensive military capabilities and allocate a larger defense budget. This evolving situation reflects broader regional instability, exacerbated by Turkey’s involvement and recent developments in Syria.

A mysterious airstrip nearing completion on Yemen’s remote Abd al-Kuri Island raises regional security concerns. Satellite images suggest the UAE is behind the project, potentially to counter Houthi rebel attacks that threaten global shipping routes. As tensions escalate, the runway could be pivotal for surveillance and military operations in the Gulf of Aden. With the Houthis’ continued assaults on Israel and U.S. forces, and suspected weapons smuggling from Iran, this new development could further destabilize the already volatile region.

They will subsequently return to Russia for further rehabilitation.
