What they said

With the rapid global shift toward artificial intelligence and automated systems, modern cyber threats have evolved beyond standard phishing.

Our mission is for the residents of Nirim and the Gaza envelope to sleep quietly at night. For that we wake up every morning.

If in the past we knew of the existence of weapons depots and waited for the right timing to attack them, today we do not allow that. Anything we detect in the field of weapons, production or storage, we attack the same day and at the same moment, and we give it no margin.

The brigade commanders today are not as they were before. The level of experience and knowledge is completely different. Hamas is trying to reorganize its forces and recruit new elements, but we do not allow them to train, and if we detect activity of this kind we attack it immediately.

Cybersecurity has never been more at the core of the sustainability and resilience of our societies. At a time when AI is advancing at extraordinary speed, we are in a period of profound transformation; one that brings real risks, but also enormous potential for progress.

AI has brought speed and everything happens faster.

AI has proved to be a major cybersecurity challenge, but also a tool to be used by defenders.

We really believe that a model of this caliber and this level of frontier performance is meaningfully important for defenders.

would have been impossible two years ago. That now is possible because this agent will figure it out for you and build it for you, without you having to put 100 people to work on this.

resilience against cyber attacks is the cost of doing business in the interconnected world that we operate in.

Cyber resilience should be muscle memory for the organization.

Technology, innovation, and investment are an entry point to strengthening the resilience of Lebanese agriculture.

Priority goes to the affected areas and strengthening the resilience of the agricultural sector, and the needs of the agricultural sector must be turned into fundable and implementable projects.

When you start to have users vibe coding, it’s almost like you’re extending your developer pool into folks that … may not have the direct understanding of all that’s happening behind the scenes. As [user-driven development] gets more complex, and as it starts to render more risk to the process, especially at a scale where it’s affecting multiple clients, you would expect a more rigorous process with reviews.

When you have created an [AI] agent or other AI-enabled tools that are going to be widely used in the organization, it should go through an established governance and formal change management process. If you don’t retain clear information about how it was created and what it does, it becomes difficult to achieve scalable, reliable, and secure deployments.

The threat environment is becoming significantly more serious. It has become much more dangerous, and the speed at which the threat landscape is changing has accelerated significantly.

I told my wife to let me go out, and she was scared. Several of us ran and we entered the event. We began to control the entire area around the cockpit.

We didn't immediately understand that something was abnormal. We thought it was air turbulence. My wife calmed down and I told her it was normal and not to be afraid. I started filming, and after seconds we understood that what was happening was more dangerous.

The pilot was in contact with me the whole time. I filmed the incident because I was afraid we would land in Saudi Arabia and they would accuse us. We were all covered in blood, so I filmed everything. We thought of every detail and we were a successful team.

The American withdrawal from Iraq and the illusions of sovereignty and stability

There is no indication that government systems have been compromised at this time.

They made significant progress on the security files

It has absolutely no presence in Syrian territory and has no relation to any security or military activity there

It will monitor the investigation and may also take part in it

It is too early to say that

I am very surprised by the move to cut the budget of the Ministry of Public Works and not other ministries; what is required is to secure revenues by combating tax and customs evasion instead of imposing new taxes on citizens.

Is the aim to punish productive ministries and achieving ministers?

Despite our awareness of the difficult financial situation, and apart from partisanship toward Minister Fayez Rasamny, it seems very surprising that the trend is to cut the budget of the Ministry of Public Works and Transport while other ministries are spared, despite the importance of what it does across Lebanon without discrimination.

US pressure on the Lebanese state continues, with close monitoring of the situation. There is no other option but for the party to hand over its weapons sooner or later. There is no decision in the United States to stop support for the Lebanese Army, and it will receive more support if the weapons-restriction mission is implemented.

The US administration hopes that the warnings it expresses in meetings with Lebanese officials will produce a result.
