Factal APAC lead Vivian Wang is back with an expansion on the South and Southeast Asia protests and youth uprisings as they expand into East Timor and the Philippines. One aspect carrying over through the region is the connection to popular anime series One Piece.

Emergent Risk International Director of Analysis Kieran O'Leary follows that with things to watch for in Indonesia.

Later he dives into the multiple drone incursions in Eastern and Baltic Europe over the past month as Russia (probably) and NATO tensions rise and airports close.

Finally Kieran speaks to the changes in the U.S. H-1B visa regulations.

Since the earliest days of COVID, Factal and Emergent Risk International have held an essential hour-long briefing for global security and resilience professionals.

Held every two weeks on Thursdays the Global Security Briefing is now the industry's largest virtual event of its kind.

To paraphrase usual host Kieran O'Leary, everything is a polycrisis because every crisis overlaps.

This week's Global Security Briefing touches on political crises in France and Nepal, what security teams and businesses should be aware of after the Charlie Kirk killing, what to watch for after Russian drones flew over Poland, the recent airstrike by Israel into Qatar targeting Hamas leadership and a Q&A full of global issues impacting businesses as well.

Presenting from Factal are editors Jessica (on France) and Vivian (on Nepal) with Poornima (Nepal, South Asia) and Hannah (Kirk, Russia, Qatar) from Emergent Risk International.

This edition of the Briefing starts with Factal Chief Product Officer talking about the employment impacts of generative AI (some job fields are down for entry level positions).

He then explores the latest in generative imagery and video, focusing on how the latest advancements will challenge risk intelligence and journalism.

Kieran O'Leary shares the five things keeping him and his team of analysts at Emergent Risk International up at night (de minimis, Syria elections, US redistricting, Brazilian justice, disinformation in Africa).

After that is a deep dive into exit detentions by China and what global companies should watch for.
