1. South Sudan Dissolves Unity Government Ahead of First National Election
-- President Salva Kiir dissolved the transitional government and national and state assemblies, replacing them with a caretaker administration before elections scheduled for December 22.
-- Removing power-sharing institutions concentrates authority in Kiir while voter registration, a permanent constitution and unification of rival armed forces remain unfinished, increasing electoral and security risks.

2. FBI Investigates Claim of Major Personnel-Data Theft
-- The FBI said it is investigating ShinyHunters' claim that the cybercrime group stole more than two terabytes of sensitive information about thousands of bureau employees and job applicants from FBIjobs.gov.
-- Exposure of personnel records could enable identity theft, coercion or targeted attacks against law-enforcement staff, making verification of the breach and protection of affected people urgent.

3. Meta Removes 3.7 Million Scam-Linked Accounts and Pages

-- Network-level enforcement can disrupt the infrastructure used to impersonate officials and reach victims, but lasting results depend on preventing operators from rapidly rebuilding accounts and pages.
