🇮🇷 Iran's Supreme Leader is calling on the Muslim world to stand united against the U.S. and Israel, six months into the Middle East war that brought him to power.

Mojtaba Khamenei, who succeeded his father Ali Khamenei after he was k1lled in the first strikes of the U.S.-Israeli offensive on February 28, has not appeared publicly since taking office. In a written message released Sunday, he urged Muslim leaders, especially across the Persian Gulf, to "recognize their true enemy, understand its plans, and confront it," naming the U.S. and Israel as threats to the entire Muslim world, not just Iran.

"The solution to the Ummah's problems lies in unity of word, friendship, and cooperation," Khamenei said, warning that anyone who sows division among Muslims serves the enemies' goals. He also called for gradually moving Iran's economy away from the dollar and boosting domestic production amid ongoing U.S. naval restrictions and sanctions.

Since the conflict began, Iran has struck American military installations in allied nations including Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, and Bahrain. 🇺🇸

🇨🇴 Colombia's new government is exploring a bold move: turning Navy ships into floating maximum-security prisons for the country's most dangerous cr!me bosses.

Under President Abelardo De la Espriella, officials are advancing the Estrategia de Reclusión Especial Marítima de Alta Seguridad (REMAS), a plan to relocate high-profile inmates who continue coordinating extortion and criminal networks from behind bars. The idea: isolate them at sea, cut off phones, internet, and outside contact, and surround them with military-controlled waters, making escape far harder than from a traditional prison yard.

The strategy isn't new. Colombia used a similar tactic in 2007 under President Álvaro Uribe with two major drug traffickers. Officials say the plan is still in development, with legal and budget details pending, and comparisons drawn to Ecuador's attempt at something similar, which was never carried out.

Supporters argue it could break the command chain between jailed leaders and their networks. Critics counter that without solving corruption and smuggled communication, the ocean alone won't stop the crime.

🇮🇸🇪🇺 Iceland has voted to stay out of the European Union — at least for now.

In a referendum held on August 29, 52.8% of voters rejected reopening membership negotiations with the EU, while 47.2% voted in favor. The narrow result reflects a nation split down the middle on one of its biggest political questions in years.

Fishing sat at the heart of the debate. The industry makes up about 40% of Iceland's exports, and many voters feared losing control over their waters, fishing quotas, and natural resources under full EU membership. Supporters of a "yes" vote, meanwhile, argued that deeper integration would give Iceland more say over rules it already follows through the European Economic Area, along with greater economic stability.

Importantly, the vote wasn't about joining the EU outright — it asked whether to resume talks suspended since 2013, and any future accession deal would still require a separate public vote. For now, Iceland remains closely tied to Europe while staying outside the EU itself.

🇨🇴🇸🇻 Colombia's president-elect Abelardo De La Espriella has openly praised El Salvador's Nayib Bukele, calling his approach to security "sober leadership" he genuinely admires. Yet he's been clear that admiration doesn't mean imitation — he insists his own government will follow a model built specifically for Colombia's reality, not a copy of anyone else's.

Throughout his political career, De La Espriella has pointed to Bukele's tough-on-crime policies as a reference point, including plans to build maximum-security megaprisons aimed at tackling ins3curity. He's previously described Bukele as a "big leagues" leader, though he also noted that Colombia already had its own security benchmark in former president Álvaro Uribe, whom he considers even more effective on that front.

The comparisons between the two leaders have become a recurring theme in Colombian politics, especially as De La Espriella's security-focused platform takes shape. While the Bukele-style rhetoric draws attention, he continues to frame his approach as distinctly Colombian rather than borrowed. 🏛️

🇲🇽 Mexican scientists may be on the verge of changing how diabetes-related vision loss is treated. A research team at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) is developing eye drops designed to prevent blindness caused by diabetic retinopathy, one of the leading causes of vision loss among working-age adults.

Led by researcher Juan Pablo Robles at UNAM's Institute of Neurobiology, the project is built around vasoinhibin, a molecule the human body produces naturally to stop abnormal blood vessel growth. After years of study, the team discovered that the molecule's biological activity is concentrated in just 3 of its 123 amino acids, allowing them to design a simplified drug formulated as eye drops instead of the painful intraocular injections currently used.

The treatment works by blocking angiogenesis, the abnormal vessel growth driven by VEGF, while also acting on other molecules linked to retinal damage, potentially making it more effective than existing therapies. Early findings were published in the Journal of Biological Chemistry. Researchers describe the project as a milestone in Mexican translational science with the potential to benefit millions of diabetes patients. 👁️🔬

🇵🇪🇲🇽 Peru has formally asked Mexico to reconsider the visa requirement imposed on Peruvian citizens since 2024, arguing the measure has hurt tourism between the two countries.

The request was raised by Peru's Deputy Foreign Minister, Eric Anderson Machado, during a bilateral meeting on August 19 with Mexico's Undersecretary for Latin America and the Caribbean, Raquel Serur. It marked the first official meeting between the two nations since diplomatic relations were restored. Anderson noted that Peru is currently the only Pacific Alliance member whose citizens still need a visa to enter Mexico.

President Keiko Fujimori's government has said reviewing the visa requirement is part of the broader process of normalizing ties with Mexico, which resumed after Peru granted safe passage to former Prime Minister Betssy Chávez. Mexican officials committed to evaluating the request, though no final decision has been made. For now, the visa requirement remains in effect for Peruvian travelers heading to Mexico. 🛂✈️

🇸🇻 Big news out of El Salvador: President Nayib Bukele has announced that his government will roll out 50,000 scholarships for young Salvadorans in 2026, opening doors to university degrees, technical training, and vocational courses.

The announcement came Sunday at a packed event in the Jorge "El Mágico" González National Stadium, where more than 30,000 students gathered. Bukele explained that the initiative is backed by a $100 million agreement with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), designed to keep the program funded long-term, independent of any single administration's budget. Scholarship options will include in-person, hybrid, and virtual study, plus opportunities abroad coordinated through the Dirección de Integración and the Foreign Ministry.

Bukele also noted the country has grown from 10 to 35 universities, and revealed plans to eventually raise annual education spending above $3 billion — more than 8% of GDP — a figure he claims would surpass any other nation in Latin America.

🇸🇻 During his address to the United Nations General Assembly, El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele defended his country's security strategy against ongoing criticism from human rights observers. "Some say we've imprisoned thousands, but the reality is we've freed millions," he stated firmly before world leaders.

Bukele positioned El Salvador as a model of transformation, contrasting it with what he described as a world becoming increasingly "divided, depressed, worried, hostile, and hopeless." He argued that while critics question how the country turned around so quickly, the more relevant question is why the rest of the world is declining so fast in comparison.

The president emphasized that El Salvador, once known as one of the most dangerous places on the planet, has become significantly safer, allowing citizens to live without fear while still protecting freedoms and human rights, according to his remarks. His speech came shortly after his landslide re-election victory in February, securing him a second term through June 2029.

🇧🇷 Brazil is making a bold move in the global AI race. President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's government launched a bidding process to build one of the ten most powerful supercomputers in the world, aiming to strengthen the country's artificial intelligence capabilities.

At a ceremony held in Rio Grande do Norte, Lula declared that Brazil wants to "think big" and refuses to be "inferior to anyone" in the AI space. "Neither the Chinese nor the Americans are better than us. We're entering this market," he stated firmly, signaling the country's ambition to compete on the world stage.

Alongside the bidding process, the government also announced a separate partnership with China to develop an additional advanced computer system, reinforcing Brazil's strategy of balancing technological cooperation between global powers rather than depending on a single country or provider. 🇨🇳 The initiative reflects Brazil's broader push to expand its domestic AI infrastructure and reduce reliance on foreign-based processing.

🧠 New scientific research reveals something startling: your brain may actually consume parts of itself when you don't get enough sleep. While rest is commonly known for restoring energy, scientists have found it plays a far deeper role in maintaining the brain itself.

A team of Italian neuroscientists at Marche Polytechnic University, led by Dr. Michele Bellesi, studied how sleep deprivation affects brain tissue in mice. They discovered that prolonged lack of sleep triggers a significant loss of synaptic connections — and concerningly, this damage may not be fully reversible even after recovery sleep.

The brain relies on two support cell types, microglia and astrocytes, to maintain neural health. Microglia normally clear out damaged cells, while astrocytes help regulate synapses. The study found that sleep-deprived mice showed abnormally high astrocytic activity consuming synaptic components, along with increased microglial activity — a pattern also linked in other research to neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer's. While conducted in mice, researchers note the findings may offer insight into human brain health.
