The world of intelligence: the major players
The Hamas attack against Israel on October 7, 2023, exposed a major flaw in Israeli intelligence services, considered among the best in the world. In a world where warfare is becoming hybrid, the challenges for intelligence services are immense, and their ability to inform, influence, and manipulate is a primary factor in power.
Cities: Facing Heatwaves
By mid-century, the number of cities exposed to temperatures exceeding 35 degrees Celsius for three consecutive months will have tripled. 1.6 billion city dwellers are said to be threatened by these extreme weather events. Excess mortality, respiratory illnesses, and worsening inequalities in cities worldwide. Faced with this emergency, cities are mobilizing and innovating.
Serbia: Between Beijing, Brussels and Moscow
Serbia is a key Balkan country at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, led by President Aleksandar Vučić. An official candidate for EU membership, Serbia has not applied sanctions against Moscow and has a good relationship with Beijing. Where does its future lie?
Drones: New Warfare
Drones are reshaping modern warfare in conflicts around the world. The technology is cost-effective, can be piloted safely, and can cause devastation. Armies must adapt to this new threat as airspace becomes increasingly militarised.

More than 9.5 million people have been forced to leave their homes and find refuge in other regions or abroad. But the Ukrainians have shown great resilience in the face of Russian aggression.
