In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:

Ukraine steps up its campaign against Russia’s shadow fleet as a new naval-drone strike damages another tanker and deepens the financial pressure on Moscow’s wartime oil revenues.
A dramatic, clandestine rescue at sea: how a private American team spent 15 hours getting Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado out of the country and safely en route to accept the Nobel Peace Prize.
NATO’s chief issues a stark warning, urging member states to prepare for the possibility that Russia could target the alliance within five years.
