SA continues to exert pressure on Yemen, who is still attempting to deal with AQAP (and Daesh, apparently)
The long siege of Mosul continues, with the Shia majority government showing that it has not learned its lesson by once again persecuting the Sunni minority; it is unlikely the US will take any action.
The Turk's power play, of course, has already been covered.
The Turk and the Russian consolidate their hold on Syria. The Turkish army (and it's militia affiliates in the FSA) continues its ill-fated push into Al-Bab under operation Euphrates Shield, while lying about its success to Turkish media. (fair warning: a lot of my sources in the region are Kurdish-affiliated, so this push might be more effective than I thought)
The SDF continue their (hopefully less ill-fated) push into Raqqa under operation Euphrates Wrath, and will probably initiate the fight for the city itself within the next couple of months.
I'm not sure if Operation Inherent Resolve is still in effect under the current POTUS (unlikely, given what the rumor mill is telling me), but if DEFSEC manages to convince him then we might see something much more comprehensive in terms of aid for the SDF.
The likelihood of unification for the Kurds decreases steadily, for two reasons: the Turk and the Russian see this as a major power play on the part of the US, and will oppose on principal, and the KRG and Rojava are becoming more and more like two distinct entities, especially with Barzani sending only minimal Peshmerga assistance to the SDF, and more recently closing off the border between the two regions.
Israeli leadership continues to be inept. In other news, sky still blue, bear still shits in the woods.
And in Afghanistan, the Taliban urges people to plant more trees.
