Israel to Launch Ground Invasion of Lebanon

South Korea is dying (but it has a plan)
#Depopulation is a phenomenon around the world, but no country is in as dire a situation as South Korea. The #fertility rate has plummeted to a record low of 0.72 – far below the replacement rate needed to maintain a stable population. This isn't just a statistic; it's a ticking time bomb that threatens #southkorea's Korea's future prosperity.
The government nearly $300 billion into solving this crisis to no avail. Now, they're taking a radical step: building a new city designed specifically for families and moving the entire capital there.

Will this gamble pay off? Can a city designed around families increase the fertility rate? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
#Somalia has leased all its territorial waters and marine resources to #Turkey over the next ten years. The pact is as much about Mogadishu’s security as it is about Ankara’s maritime ambitions.
#Egypt signed a deal with the #UAE to construct a new city on the Mediterranean coast. Critics, however, say that Egypt will trade over part of its #sovereignty.
Iran’s President Raisi has died. What now?
Iranian President #Raisi had a long list of enemies, both from without and within. It is not unreasonable to question whether his colleagues conspired to eliminate him.
We live in an age of war; think of #Ukraine, #Israel, #Iran, #Ethiopia, etc. An armed conflict in #Korea is just the kind of war we could stumble into, were recent provocations to escalate.
Even though #Biden and #Trump hold diametrical views on social, legal, political, climate, and financial issues, their approach to #geopolitics is not necessarily all that different.
