A visual analysis shows the U.S. likely bombed a migrant detention center in Yemen on April 28. At least three U.S.-made GBU-39 bombs at the site of the attack, which killed 68 African migrants, according to the Houthis, a militant group that controls northern Yemen.

Yet this analytical blunder shaped so much Remainer thinking in UK Brexit debates and is one of several reasons for the failure of a pro-European campaign in Britain that didn't engage with what the EU is becoming
Clegg seems to conceive of the EU as an international organization that does a bit of micromanagement here, a bit of micromanagement there - and should now drop that and focus on defense. That could not be more wrong. /2

The story of this election really is BSW and Linke. When Sahra Wagenknecht finally split off in 2023, the Linke was thought to be dead.

Thinking today of Elizabeth Tsurkov, whom I never met personally but who wrote for us on several occasions. She was for years a must-read analyst on Syria's civil war and the armed groups fighting it until Kataib Hezbollah took her hostage in Baghdad ~2 yrs ago. I hope her captivity also ends soon.

#Syria: The insurgency announced that its forces have taken the city of Homs in its entirety.
President Assad now only controls just a few cities in all of Syria.
It comes not long after KSA, Qatar + other Arab FMs met w/Iran, Turkey, and Russian officials in Doha.
