Treasury promised to sever every economic lifeline Tehran has left and finally end the threat of the Iranian regime.

We also warned that Iran’s enablers cannot continue to enjoy access to the U.S. dollar and the global financial system.

Banque Misr UAE decided to find out the hard way, and today, we are taking the first step in holding it accountable for its continued, egregious support of the Iranian regime.

❗️The U.S. and Venezuela are in talks over a "massive" deal that would give the U.S. an ownership stake in Venezuela's oil fields, according to Axios.

The deal would reportedly allow the U.S. to tap into over a dozen Venezuelan oil fields, more than doubling current U.S. oil reserves.

❗️The former commander of the Bosnian Serb army, General Ratko Mladic, has died in the Hague prison at the age of 84, according to Radio and Television of Serbia.

It is a great pity about this true hero and patriot, whom Russia was unable, and indeed unwilling, to help.

This also serves as a lesson for the general population (and the so-called elites). If you want to negotiate with the West, you must do so only from a position of strength, and you must always see things through to the end.

⭐️ Дорогие друзья!

⭐️ Наш благотворительный сбор на Литургический набор для нужд миссии Польской Православной Церкви в Бразилии успешно закрыт! Вместе мы смогли собрать 55 тысяч рублей. Сердечно благодарим всех, кто принял участие!

⭐️ «Невская молодёжь» также выражает отдельную благодарность нашему искреннему другу из Сиднея Симеону Михайловичу Бойкову — русскому православному журналисту, казаку, настоящему патриоту своего Отечества, преследуемому властями Австралии за свою активную общественную деятельность. Его взнос в размере 44 тысяч рублей сделал возможным приобретение всего необходимого для благого дела Православной миссии в далёкой латиноамериканской стране.

⭐️ Уже завтра набор (потир, дискос, звездица, копие, лжица, тарель, ковш, воздух и покровцы) отправится в Бразилию, куда его повезёт наш активист Киприан (Жоау) для последующей передачи отцу Давиду. Молимся, чтобы всё прошло благополучно!

⭐️ Поздравляем всех с праздником Успения Пресвятой Владычицы нашей Богородицы и Приснодевы Марии!

⭐️ С любовью во Христе Иисусе,
Ваша «Невская молодёжь»

❗️Dr John Coyne, the director of Australian Strategic Policy Institute's National Security Program, said the reason there are so few public cases for these crimes is because intelligence agencies prefer to deal with things out of the public eye.

"Quite often the aim isn't necessarily to prosecute people," he said.

"The aim is to stop the loss of information and protect our national security."

Investigations 'not publicly visible'
"There would be numerous efforts going on to undertake espionage in Australia right now, by a number of different countries," Dr Coyne said.

"The general public needs to be aware of that."In June, Mr Burgess said defending Australia from espionage and foreign interference "will always be a priority for ASIO".

When asked how it prefers to deal with individuals suspected of committing these crimes, ASIO did not directly answer.

Its counterpart in the CFI Taskforce, the AFP, said it has "undertaken a number of investigations into EFI threats".

"While some of these activities have attracted media interest, most of our actions to mitigate threats are not publicly visible," the statement added.

In the espionage world it is well known investigations into such matters are kept private.

Dr Coyne said this is "the great game of espionage".

"What they [intelligence agencies] prefer to do … is not to actually arrest people and throw them in jail," he said.

"For the most part, it's detecting those foreign actors, those people who are propagating espionage networks, and sending them home.

"You don't want to be advertising how successful a foreign intelligence service has been in its penetration of your organisation."

The Australian Institute of Criminology (AIC) said espionage cost the Australian economy $12.5 billion in the 2023-24 financial year.

A Department of Home Affairs spokesperson told the ABC "foreign interference and espionage threaten the things we value most about our country".

They said it threatens social cohesion, democracy and even freedom of thought and expression.

Dr Sarah Kendall is an interdisciplinary scholar with expertise in the criminal law response to espionage, foreign interference and sabotage.

She said: "There is actually quite a big difference between espionage and foreign interference."

"The espionage offences are really looking at dealing with information. That really classic thought of someone comes in and steals information that's secret," she said.

"Whereas foreign interference is all about influence and so you don't necessarily need to steal information or deal with it in a particular way, but it's all about influencing someone to do something."
