Global Intelligence Briefing | 13 August: What comes after the US-Iran truce deadline?

This week's Global Intelligence Briefing examines the aftermath of Colombia's strongest earthquake in more than a century and Russia's campaign against Ukraine's Black Sea ports, which has effectively suspended commercial maritime traffic through Greater Odesa. We also assess a high-profile assassination and possible internal power struggle in Libya, stalled efforts to de-escalate southern Lebanon, expanding Israeli settler activity in the West Bank, and what could follow the end of the 60-day US-Iran truce period. Elsewhere, we look at escalating fighting in Yemen and the implications for Saudi Arabia, Indonesia's worsening wildfire season, and the prospect of further election-related unrest in Pakistan-administered Kashmir.
