Internet Kill Switch: Recurring Blackouts in Syria, Iraq, Algeria – And Who’s Next?

Internet Kill Switch: Recurring Blackouts in Syria, Iraq, Algeria – And Who’s Next?

Syria has conducted annual nationwide internet shutdowns on high school exam days since 2016, with 2020–2025 patterns showing daily outages of roughly 3.5 to 5.5 hours during exam periods. Syria’s shutdowns use an asymmetric model that allows outbound traffic but blocks inbound responses, making the internet effectively unusable. In Syria, the 2023 exam season produced at least 11 nationwide outages, each about 4 hours long (06:00–10:00), spanning May–June for the first round and late June–July for the second. Iraq began regular exam-related shutdowns in 2023, imposing near-daily four-hour nationwide outages (04:00–08:00) during exams, with a total of 42 outages in

Unveiling the F-16 Fighting Falcon: The Legendary Jet’s History, Secrets, and Showdown with Modern Fighters

Unveiling the F-16 Fighting Falcon: The Legendary Jet’s History, Secrets, and Showdown with Modern Fighters

The F-16 began as General Dynamics’ YF-16 in the USAF’s Lightweight Fighter program, with the prototype’s maiden flight in 1974 and the first operational F-16A delivered in 1979. It introduced relaxed static stability and fly-by-wire controls, enabling exceptional agility and the ability to sustain 9 g turns. The cockpit features a frameless bubble canopy for 360-degree visibility and a 30-degree-reclined ejection seat to improve high-G tolerance.

Natural Gas Today (Dec. 24, 2025): Prices Rebound on Record LNG Demand as Europe’s TTF Softens

Natural Gas Today (Dec. 24, 2025): Prices Rebound on Record LNG Demand as Europe’s TTF Softens

Natural gas markets are ending the Christmas Eve session with a familiar late-December personality: thin holiday liquidity on the surface, but big structural forces underneath. On the U.S. side, Henry Hub futures have been whipsawing—first pressured by warmer forecasts, then pulled higher by near-record LNG export demand and a wave of short-covering. In Europe, benchmark gas prices eased as traders weighed a potentially less-severe cold spell against stable Norwegian supply and an LNG system that still looks well-stocked heading into January. Meanwhile, geopolitical and infrastructure headlines—from a halt in Iranian gas flows to Iraq to fresh LNG dealmaking and Russia’s

Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE: XOM) heads into Friday’s (Dec. 26, 2025) market open with its stock trading near recent highs—but with several fast-moving headlines in the background, from Russia-related legacy assets to a potentially major Iraq deal, plus a fresh long-term growth plan that’s reshaping the company’s investment narrative.
