Description: In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: Iran is accused of sending IRGC commandos onto Kuwaiti territory during the fragile Gulf ceasefire, raising fears the region’s shadow war is still escalating behind the scenes. The war with Iran is reportedly accelerating U.S.-Ukraine defense cooperation, with Washington and Kyiv now pursuing a landmark drone and air defense agreement as modern warfare rapidly evolves. Frustrations between Kyiv and the Trump administration appear to be boiling over, as President Volodymyr Zelensky increasingly distances Ukraine from what was once its most important ally. And in today’s Back of the Brief — North Korea’s support for Russia’s war effort is reportedly fueling the country’s biggest economic growth surge in nearly a decade, as Pyongyang earns billions supplying troops, missiles, and ammunition to Moscow.
