By Irina Tsukerman, July 27, 2020
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Israel does not need to be directly engaged in combat to help its allies confront and prevail over mutual adversaries. In Libya, it can play a role in training LNA troops, provide important logistical and intelligence support, and politically influence Washington to cease its backing of the GNA and hostile Islamist militias and state actors.

Trump's Dangerous Diplomacy with Erdoğan  By Shay Attias, July 26, 2020
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: America’s reputation as a credible actor is an essential matter for US foreign policy, but it has weakened significantly throughout this century.

Libya: Russian Military Equipment Sent to Libya Despite Arms Embargo.  The Pentagon released satellite photographs on Friday alongside a statement saying that Russia was still supplying weapons, aircraft, and armored vehicles to Libya despite the arms embargo. Africa Command (AFRICOM) deputy director of intelligence General Gregory Hadfield said "the type and volume of equipment demonstrates an intent toward sustained offensive combat action capabilities, not humanitarian relief, and indicates the Russian Ministry of Defense is supporting these operations."  The Moscow Times Reuters RFE/RL

Why reassessing Israel’s risky relationship with China matters
Mark Dubowitz and Richard Goldberg — Ynet News
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently called on the United Nations Security Council to reimpose, or “snapback,” international sanctions and restrictions on the Islamic Republic of Iran – a terror-sponsoring regime that seeks to wipe Israel off the map. Just as the prime minister was speaking, another country was addressing the Security Council in defense of Iran: the People’s Republic of China. Read more
