The President's Daily Brief

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:

• The world was rocked by what may be the largest tech outage in history, which knocked out operations for airlines, emergency services, banks, media companies, and more on Friday morning, and exposed the glaring global risks posed by our technologically interdependent modern economies.

• The Houthis of Yemen have launched their most provocative strike yet, hitting the Israeli city of Tel Aviv with an advanced drone that was able to dodge multiple layers of air defenses, suggesting the militants are upgrading their munitions with an assist from their backers in Iran.
