US: No country can impose a solution on the Libyan people
The regional spokesman for the US State Department, Samuel Warburg, has stated that the US, Russia, Turkey or any other country cannot impose any solution on the Libyan people, stressing that it supports Libya's sovereignty and any solution in Libya must be intra-Libyan. Warburg confirmed that the new UN envoy to Libya, Abdoulaye Bathily, is in contact with all parties and held some meetings in New York on the sidelines of the General Assembly meetings and conducted a dialogue with all parties. He also explained that Libya is facing challenges without the presence of any consensus, or joint government and vision, saying that this will lead to a vacuum that the militias will unfortunately exploit,“We are in contact with the Egyptian government because we know that the chaos in Libya will affect Egypt”, Warburg added.

Women Terrorists: An Underapprec-iated Risk (Learn More, Multi-Video)
This misconception is a factor in the success of female terrorists in perpetrating many attacks, including suicide bombings. But these attitudes are changing with more frequent investigations and prosecutions of women terrorists in the United States and abroad. Given the heightened visibility, lethality, and contributions of female terrorists worldwide, this underestimation of women terrorists merits urgent recalibration. Historically, women have not been perceived as violent terrorists, and this lax attitude has led to the success of attacks, including suicide bombings. It means having specific programs toward potential women terrorists.

EU report on Turkey criticizes its involvement in Libya
The latest European Commission report on Turkey cites multiple reasons that led to deterioration of bilateral relations including its involvement in Libya. It points out that Turkey’s military support to Libya, including the deployment of foreign fighters on the ground, and its persistent criticism and lack of cooperation with Operation IRINI are detrimental to the EU’s effective contribution to the implementation of the UN arms embargo and have led to conflicting approaches to Libya. The Commission’s report also refers to the illegal Turkey-Libya memorandum. “Turkey has continued to confirm the validity of the 2019 Turkey-Libya Maritime Delimitation Agreement, which the EU considers to be a violation of the sovereign rights of third States, which does not comply with the Law of the Sea and has no legal consequences for third States,” the report stated. As regards Turkey’s foreign policy in general, the Commission underlines that its “unilateral foreign policy” has continued to contradict EU priorities in the framework of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP), in particular due to its military action in Syria and Iraq and its lack of alignment with EU restrictive measures against Russia.

The Spokesman announced his country’s doubts about the legitimacy, purpose and impartiality of the European Union’s naval mission off the Libyan coast. The European Union’s Operation IRINI announced last Monday on Twitter that Ankara had refused the request to inspect the ship, and this was denied by the Turkish authorities. Operation IRINI called on the Security Council to request all UN members to cooperate with the inspections.

Gheis Ghoreishi tells Tehran Times: Hostile media trying to implement Syria-Libya scenario in Iran
Considering the effect it has in the absence of professional Farsi language media and the strange inefficiency of the state media, Iran International has been able to create a serious challenge for the country's national security. The mainstream media are in the war with the eastern axis, including Russia, Iran and China. In the mainstream media war against Iran, Iran is not the target. Q: What should be the ideal reaction to this media war? For him, it was important that Saudi Arabia would inject oil quickly and lower the price of oil in Europe and America.

Fact check: False claim that undocumented immigrants get Social Security numbers at the border
At one such July 30 political event in Tempe, Arizona, Logan claimed undocumented immigrants are being handed Social Security numbers at the border. Immigrants are not receiving Social Security numbers at the borderThe Border Patrol "does not possess the capability or authority to issue Social Security numbers, and therefore does not issue Social Security numbers to non-citizens who crossed the border," Rhonda Lawson, a public affairs specialist for the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency, which includes the Border Patrol, told USA TODAY in an emailed statement. Nicole Tiggemann, a Social Security Administration spokesperson, also confirmed in an email that the agency does not issue Social Security numbers at border crossing stations. Social Security numbers are typically used to report a person's salary to the government or determine whether someone can be granted Social Security benefits, according to the Social Security Administration. Border Patrol agents are not permitted to hand out Social Security numbers to immigrants at the border.

UN demands Russia reverse 'illegal' annexations in Ukraine
It was the strongest support from the General Assembly for Ukraine and against Russia of the four resolutions it has approved since Russian troops invaded Ukraine Feb. 24. The Western-sponsored resolution was a response to Russia’s announced annexation last month of Ukraine’s Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions. By contrast, the General Assembly, where there are no vetoes, has now approved four resolutions criticizing Russia over Ukraine. Australian Ambassador Mitch Fifield called Russia’s attempted annexation “illegal and a dangerous escalation” and urged all countries to support the resolution to oppose acts of aggression. He argued that U.S. interference in the internal affairs of countries is continuing in the 21st century.

UN: Migrants in Libya Compelled to Go Home Under Threat of Abuse
A new U.N. report finds migrants in Libya are subject to systematic human rights violations and abuse to compel them to accept so-called assisted returns to their countries of origin. Authors of the report say migrants in Libya are trapped in an untenable situation. The report says migrants frequently are compelled to accept assisted return to escape abusive detention conditions. The U.N. human rights office is calling on Libya and involved states to take immediate steps to address what it calls an indefensible, unconscionable situation. It says Libyan authorities must end all violations and abuses of migrants’ rights.
