Summary

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: New satellite imagery is offering a clearer picture of the damage Iran inflicted on U.S. military facilities during the recent conflict, raising important questions about the growing threat posed by drones and missiles—and what lessons the Pentagon may need to learn before the next war. France has intercepted a Russian-linked oil tanker in a move that highlights Europe's continuing effort to squeeze Moscow's energy exports, while Ukraine unveils a new artificial intelligence-powered drone designed to help identify and strike Russian logistics routes behind the front lines. In today's Back of the Brief, Colombia's presidential election is headed to a runoff after a surprisingly strong showing by a right-wing outsider candidate, setting up a contest that could have major implications for U.S.-Colombia relations and regional security.
