Summary

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: U.S. intelligence is warning that Russia may be preparing a military provocation inside Poland in an effort to test NATO's resolve. We break down the reported threat, what it could look like, and why officials in Washington and Warsaw are taking it seriously. Iran held a massive funeral for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, but his successor, Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, was notably absent. We examine what happened—and what it could mean for Iran's leadership transition. China is widening its pressure campaign against Taiwan, deploying coast guard vessels to waters east of the island in a move that expands Beijing's political and maritime presence. In today's Back of the Brief, authorities identify a Ukrainian woman as the prime suspect in a bombing in Monaco that reportedly targeted one of Ukraine's wealthiest businessmen and his family.
