Libyan organizations have expressed their objection to the meeting of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), Karim Khan, with Khalifa Haftar in Benghazi, asking him to apologize as the latter is accused of war crimes. The organizations indicated that golding the meeting shortly after the Prosecutor met with groups of survivors and families of victims in Tarhouna made the issue worse, as the city was under the control of Haftar together with the locations of a number of mass graves investigated by the ICC and the UN fact-finding mission. They reiterated that Karim Khan's willingness to hold a public meeting with the head of an armed group that is struggling to gain political and international legitimacy seriously undermines the credibility of the court, and calls into question its impartiality and legitimacy in considering the situation in Libya. The statement explained that Karim Khan's willingness to hold a public meeting with the head of an armed group that is struggling to gain political and international legitimacy seriously undermines the credibility of the ICC, and casts doubt on its impartiality and legitimacy in tackling the situation in Libya. It also stressed that the step taken by Khan greatly undermined the confidence of the victims and all Libyans in the ICC, which would hinder the ICC's ability to investigate crimes committed in Libya.

After years of research, development, and investment in both new generation hardware and software/content tools from industry leaders like Sony, today's robust digital signage solutions are not the simple airport-style systems of the past. Rapid advances in the evolution of API's (application programming interface), new display technologies, cloud-based content management systems, and IoT- and AI- enabled systems have ushered in a revolution in digital signage. Today's systems – when designed and executed carefully – bring new generation functionality, flexibility, and stunning imagery to common space digital content in every application. And even as these new developments have brought new and better tools to the hardware and software side, best practices are now emerging on the planning, deployment, and maintenance side of digital signage rollouts. Good timing – because as workplaces and public spaces return to normal, the new "normal" now includes the need to use the digital tools available today to go way beyond yesterday's simple "signage" and toward purpose-driven AV-based messaging and interactive ecosystems that evolve with the organization.

But in September, he acknowledged being the founder of Wagner in a social media statement released by his companies' press service. Some media reports suggested Prigozhin’s influence on Putin is growing and he is after a prominent political post.
