Cocaine is only one piece of the Cartel of the Suns. Illegal gold, corruption, armed groups, and state protection also sustain the network. Our new video maps how these criminal economies intersect — and why many survived Maduro’s arrest. https://t.co/dSt1ndqPHS

Chokepoint traffic holds, risks shift

#MarineTraffic data show vessel traffic remained active through Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb last week, although headline volumes mask significant changes in the underlying mix. Hormuz recorded 121 crossings, up 2.5% from 118. Laden crossings fell 27% to 35, while ballast movements rose to 61 and sanctioned crossings increased from 9 to 16. Iran’s unilateral routing scheme accounted for 46.3% of crossings.

Bab el-Mandeb recorded 269 crossings, up 3.1% and roughly 2.2 times Hormuz volumes. Laden transits increased to 131, while dark transits fell from 23 to 15.
The figures show why vessel-level tracking matters when assessing changing maritime risk.

Many Afghans are cheering the emergence of new anti-Taliban movements across the country - but even pro-resistance Afghans worry about who may be pulling strings behind the scenes. https://t.co/YDZ3FQ83jG

The 40th International Drug Control Conference hosted by the US's DEA brought over 100 countries to Buenos Aires. As a growing number of Latin American governments move to the right, which are embracing Washington’s approach to counternarcotics? https://t.co/0ZIUn6uW3K

The Cartel of the Suns is often described as a traditional drug cartel. Our investigations show something more complex: a corruption network connecting state officials, armed groups, drug trafficking, and illegal gold mining. Watch our video to learn how it works: https://t.co/L1Rj1j6hfj

ELON MUSK: "If you've got humanoid robots that have very high dexterity and are incredibly smart, it means that everyone on earth will have access to better medical care, than the richest person on Earth.

I had to have like a neck surgery three times because the first two ones were done wrong. Back pain may be one of the things that it eliminates. Average happiness level for humans would just go upstream tremendously."

Elon Musk explains why the values we build into Grok today could shape the superintelligence of tomorrow

“The future is overwhelmingly AI and robots”
AI will eventually become too intelligent for humans to simply control it

But just like raising an incredibly intelligent child, we can still shape the values and beliefs it grows up with

That is why getting AI right matters so much

One day, Optimus + Grok will provide incredible medical care to all the people of Earth
