"Hell's Army": New Film Tracks Russia's Wagner Group & Rise of Mercenary Armies
We speak with Oscar-nominated filmmaker Rick Rowley about his new documentary, Hell's Army. The film tracks the Wagner Group, the notorious Russian mercenary army that has fought in Ukraine and other parts of the world. The group's founder, Yevgeny Prigozhin, was a confidant to Putin until a failed 2023 mutiny against the government. He died in a suspicious plane crash two months later.

"We realized that he could be killed, the leader of this army could be killed, but its model continues," says Rowley. "Around the world, oligarchs are turning to mercenary armies, and it's a scourge that needs to be stopped."

Hell's Army has its North American premiere Friday in Washington, D.C.

U.S. Attacks Iranian Water Reservoirs Amid "Normalization" of Targeting Civilian Infrastructure
We continue our conversation with acclaimed Iranian environmental scientist Kaveh Madani, who comments on U.S. strikes targeting Iranian water reservoirs, which have exacerbated the country's water shortage. He criticizes the "normalization of targeting civil infrastructure as a part of a war."

"Who suffers from the consequences of this? The poor community, the vulnerable communities," says Madani.

"They Have Never Faced an Adversary Like Iran": Rami Khouri on Latest U.S.-Iran Strikes
The U.S. struck Iran on Wednesday for a second day in a row, and President Trump is threatening more strikes. Iran has claimed it launched retaliatory missiles at a U.S. Navy fleet in Bahrain, as well as at U.S. air bases in Kuwait and Jordan. Iran has also declared the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz, despite claims by the U.S. that it now effectively controls the strait. Iran's Foreign Ministry says the U.S. strikes have rendered the ceasefire "practically meaningless."

The last time that the U.S. and Iran spoke directly was in April, but talks have been continuing through intermediaries. It is Israel, not the U.S. and Iran, that doesn't want the war to end, argues journalist Rami Khouri. "Israel has made it clear that it's not going to do what the U.S. tells it," says Khouri. He adds that the U.S. doesn't know how to get out of the war or how to "rein in" Israel. "So, I expect we're going to see a continuation of these tit-for-tat military strikes."

Joint Statement by Secretaries Mayorkas and Raimondo on President Biden's National Security Memorandum to Strengthen Nation's Cybersecurity Infrastructure
Today, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas and Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo released a joint statement on the issuance of preliminary cybersecurity performance goals as directed by President Biden's National Security Memorandum, "Improving Cybersecurity for Critical Infrastructure Control Systems." 

"Today, we are delivering on the first step of the President's National Security Memorandum (NSM) objectives to strengthen the cybersecurity of our Nation's critical infrastructure control systems.  DHS's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), in coordination with the Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), developed preliminary cybersecurity performance goals based on nine categories of best practices.  These goals are part of a long overdue, whole-of-government effort to meet the scale and severity of the cybersecurity threats facing our country.  It is vital that critical infrastructure owners and operators immediately take steps to strengthen their cybersecurity posture toward these high-level goals.  The safety and security of the American people relies on the resilience of the companies that provide essential services such as power, water, and transportation.  We look forward to further engaging with key industry stakeholders to promote these efforts to protect our national and economic security." 

Read the preliminary performance goals and objectives on CISA.gov.
