The United Nations General Assembly has voted to declare the transatlantic slave trade 'the gravest crime against humanity'. The resolution, backed by African and Caribbean countries, is not legally binding but is seen as a significant step towards discussions about reparations for the descendants of enslaved people. The vote was passed with 123 votes in favor, three against, and 52 abstentions.

Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps has declared the Strait of Hormuz closed to ships without Tehran's permission, causing crude oil prices to surge above $110 a barrel. The IRGC Navy has enforced this by turning back three Chinese-owned commercial vessels.

A new study has found that sharks in the Bahamas are consuming substances like caffeine, painkillers, and cocaine, which could potentially impact their health and behavior. Researchers analyzed blood samples from 85 sharks and detected 24 legal and illegal drugs. The findings suggest that areas undergoing rapid urbanization and tourism-driven development are at risk. The study's lead author, Natascha Wosnick, emphasized the need to reassess normalized habits and address marine pollution. The data showed changes in metabolic markers tied to stress and metabolism in sharks with contaminated blood, potentially leading to behavioral changes. The researchers are concerned about the implications for shark populations and the need for further research.

The U.S. may have dropped anti-tank mines in a village near Shiraz, Iran, according to open-source research group Bellingcat.

A military analyst warns that Iran could significantly increase US casualties if it shifts to guerrilla-style hit-and-run attacks in the region.

The analyst, Michael Eisenstadt, notes that Iran has large infantry units that could be used to launch such attacks, and that the US deployment is intended to create leverage over Iran. Eisenstadt also suggests that the 82nd Airborne could potentially operate alongside Marine expeditionary units to seize and hold terrain, including Kharg Island, to deny Iran the ability to export oil and help end the war on terms favorable to the US.

Southeast Asian countries, led by Vietnam, are implementing regulations on artificial intelligence (AI) and data flows, driven by nationalist sentiment and security concerns. However, analysts warn that these measures may undermine innovation, deter foreign investment, and isolate the region from the global digital economy. Vietnam's comprehensive AI law, passed in December and effective from March 1, requires companies to label AI-generated content and disclose interactions with artificial agents. The business community has expressed concerns that the regulations are rushed and may unfairly disadvantage foreign AI providers.

A prominent Chinese political scientist, Zheng Yongnian, has warned Southeast Asian countries against exploiting the tensions between the US and China for short-term gains, stating that this strategy could backfire. Zheng, speaking at the Boao Forum for Asia, emphasized that nations in the region should not assume that the US will automatically back them in their disputes with China, particularly in the context of the South China Sea sovereignty disputes. He noted that while it is understandable for countries to try to leverage the rivalry between the two global powers for their own benefit, this approach has its limits and could ultimately harm them if they exceed those limits. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) faces a delicate balancing act between the US and China, its largest trading partner, as both countries have increased their naval presence in the South China Sea.

Chinese researchers have developed an all-weather electrolyte for lithium batteries that could improve their efficiency and range, particularly in extreme temperatures. The new electrolyte, based on hydrofluorocarbon, has been shown to more than double the energy density of traditional electrolytes at room temperature and operate efficiently at -70°C. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting lithium batteries for electric vehicles and other applications, potentially increasing the range of EVs from 500-600km to 1,000km. The research was published in the journal Nature and is seen as a promising pathway to break the power and energy density ceiling of batteries.

The article discusses how China's electric vehicle (EV) makers are shifting their focus from price wars to delivering better technology at the same price. BYD, a Shenzhen-based EV maker, unveiled a new battery that can charge from 10 to 70% in just five minutes, and to 97% in nine minutes. The company plans to apply this technology to models priced as low as 155,000 yuan (US$22,500) and build 20,000 charging stations this year. This move signals the end of the EV industry's initial phase, which was dominated by efforts to overcome range anxiety and control production costs, and marks a new era defined by cars that provide value for money alongside innovative features like autonomous driving and sophisticated in-car entertainment.

The article discusses the strategic importance of seven Iranian islands in the Persian Gulf, particularly in relation to the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway for global oil exports. The islands, known as Iran's 'arch defense,' include Abu Musa, Greater Tunb, Lesser Tunb, Hengam, Qeshm, Larak, and Hormuz. Researchers argue that these islands provide Iran with a strategic advantage in controlling the security of the Strait of Hormuz.
