Twenty five years since the worst terror attack on US soilHere's how 9/11 changed the world in 25 ways:1. US agencies subsequently changed how they shared intelligence, including through the creation of the Director of National Intelligence in 2004. Twenty-five years later, the argument remains unresolved.The detention facility at Guantanamo Bay became one of the most recognisable symbols of the post-9/11 security system. Social media later allowed governments, political groups and foreign actors to reach millions of people directly, often without traditional media acting as a filter. Brown University's Costs of War project estimates that the US spent or committed about $8 trillion on post-9/11 wars through 2021–22, including future obligations for veterans.

The storm severely damaged the region’s coral reefs, including those around Laughing Bird Caye. At Laughing Bird Caye National Park, coral cover fell to less than 6%, according to a Commonwealth case study. Coral fragments were grown in nurseries before being transplanted onto degraded sections of reef.The organisation uses several nursery techniques, including metal A-frames, underwater tables and cement “cookies” that provide stable surfaces for coral fragments. UNDP reported that coral cover at Laughing Bird Caye rose from less than 6% after Hurricane Iris to more than 50% by 2017. More than two decades later, the fragments she chose to see as survivors rather than remnants have become the foundation of one of Belize’s most prominent community-led coral restoration efforts.

From federal desert to a massive residential neighbourhood6,000 homes across three villagesWhy Las Vegas is turning to federal landWhere will the $94 million go? For years, nearly 940 acres on the northern edge of Las Vegas sat as open federal desert, surrounded by some of Southern Nevada’s most striking landscapes. The project is being developed by Olympia Companies and Bruin Capital Partners, which acquired the roughly 940-acre site after a federal land transaction involving the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the City of Las Vegas. What is now largely open desert will eventually contain thousands of homes, roads, schools, parks and commercial areas. The project is also expected to generate substantial construction activity and long-term economic activity as the community takes shape.

The US is not a member of Brics, yet President Donald Trump's shadow will loom large over the group's summit in Delhi this weekend. But few will be as consequential as the impact of President Trump's policies. While Russia and Iran may push for the group to take a clearer stand against President Trump, the geopolitical realities within Brics are likely to make that difficult. The Gulf state, which hosts US military bases, is unlikely to support a statement that helps Tehran's cause. Kugelman says Brics has become more significant through its expansion, but that has also made consensus harder.
