UN Security Council marks 9/11 with first terrorism statement in five years, focusing on AI and drones

The UN Security Council convenes to mark 25 years since 9/11, adopting its first presidential statement on terrorism in five years. The statement follows tense negotiations over references to specific groups, and briefers are expected to highlight militants' use of AI, drones, and encrypted platforms. This signals a renewed multilateral focus on evolving terrorist tactics, though the statement's operational impact remains unclear.
