UAE defense firm EDGE lands $2.5B Kuwait ship deal
Kuwait's Ministry of Defence agreed to buy eight patrol ships from Abu Dhabi-based defense contractor EDGE, in a deal valued at 9 billion dirhams ($2.45 billion). The Falaj-3 class gunships, already in service with the UAE Navy, mark their first international order, a significant milestone for the government-owned EDGE, which is pushing to grow exports. The 62-meter missile boats will be built by EDGE's subsidiary Abu Dhabi Ship Building, with other units providing ammunition and specialized systems. Gulf countries are ramping up naval spending, long overshadowed by air and land forces, amid rising maritime threats in the Gulf and Red Sea.

Ohio senators work to ensure groups like LifeWise can send items back with students
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — The Ohio Senate proposed requiring school districts to allow organizations like LifeWise to send trinkets, candy and other materials with students when they return to school. The Ohio Senate adjusted Ohio's release time for religious instruction law in its recently released draft of the state budget. Under the Senate's changes, public districts would have to allow RTRI organizations to send materials back with students and permit instruction on a near-weekly basis. The Spectrum: Lt. Gov. Tressel; Ohio budget; defense contractor setting up in central Ohio RTRI refers to legal religious instruction that occurs during the school day, off school property and with parental permission. Ohio's RTRI law recently changed; as of April 9, all public school districts have to allow religious release time, although districts have a lot of freedom in what those policies look like. If the budget passes in its current form, public districts like Columbus City Schools will have to adjust its policies. The Senate budget says districts must allow a minimum of 33 religious release lessons per school year and that schools' RTRI policies are not allowed to 'prohibit students from bringing external educational and program materials into school.' Several central Ohio schools have implemented policies prohibiting organizations from sending students back with trinkets, candy or materials to minimize disruptions. When Ohio's biggest school district, Columbus City Schools, banned organizations from distributing materials to take back to school, LifeWise founder and CEO Joel Penton said not distributing materials would not affect how families choose to participate in LifeWise. In April, LifeWise initiated a lawsuit over policies like CCS's. See previous coverage of CCS's policy change in the video player above. LifeWise, a Hilliard-based RTRI organization that has expanded biblical education nationwide, sued Ohio educational consultant firm Neola for its sample policies, which included an option ban on distributing materials. Using First Liberty Institute's legal team, LifeWise alleged Neola's sample RTRI policies violated the First Amendment. Ohio State announces every student will use AI in class Neola senior advisor Patrick Corbett told NBC4 in April that Neola shared the policy with its hundreds of clients, all Ohio public school districts, that then chose which parts to include. LifeWise warned Neola that school districts that choose to adopt the policies it was challenging would open themselves up to lawsuits. NBC4 reached out to LifeWise for comment on the Senate budget but was referred to Jeremy Dys, senior counsel at First Liberty, who represents LifeWise in its Neola case. Dys said since April, Neola has acknowledged the concerns and agreed to share them with their clients, although Neola client CCS's policy remains unchanged. Dys said he is glad to see Ohio take a stand against those policies in the state budget. 'Ohio is to be commended for its commitment to accommodate the schedules of its students to give parents the opportunity to seek a program of outside religious instruction,' Dys said. The state budget draft also acknowledges RTRI organizations' concerns about districts limiting how often students can go to those programs. These were the closest races in Ohio's primary election A school year in Ohio lasts around 36-40 weeks, with the state mandating 910 hours of instruction for K-6 grades and 1,001 for grades 7-12, with districts meeting those requirements on their own schedules. By requiring school districts to permit at least 33 RTRI sessions each year, the budget would ensure students can attend on a near-weekly basis. Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost warned school districts in April against stopping RTRI groups from distributing materials or severely limiting how frequently students can attend. He agreed that banning materials could constitute a First Amendment violation and that limiting meetings could be interpreted as not properly complying with the law.

Canada to hit NATO defense target early - The Globe and Mail
-- Prime Minister Mark Carney is preparing to announce Canada's largest increase in defense spending since World War II, a move that will accelerate the country's alignment with NATO's military investment targets. According to The Globe and Mail, the spending surge will enable Ottawa to hit the 2% of GDP threshold this fiscal year, years ahead of the previous government timeline. The policy shift is expected to be detailed during a speech Monday at the University of Toronto's Munk School of Global Affairs, where Mr. Carney will unveil a wide-ranging defense and security investment plan. Two senior government officials told The Globe and Mail that the initiative will include rapid procurement of military equipment and technology aimed at strengthening Canadian sovereignty and NATO obligations. The spending increase, reportedly amounting to tens of billions of dollars, marks a dramatic change from earlier federal projections that targeted 2032 as a realistic timeframe for achieving the NATO benchmark. The measures come amid mounting geopolitical tensions and criticism from allies that Canada has not kept pace with global defense commitments. In a recent report, NATO estimated Canadian defense spending at 1.45% of GDP for 2024, still well below the alliance's current 2% target. The U.S., particularly during Donald Trump's presidency, has often pressed Canada and other members to increase their military outlays, accusing allies of under-contributing to collective defense. The proposed investment will cover a broad range of priorities, including improved compensation for Armed Forces personnel, acquisition of new aircraft, drones, and Arctic monitoring systems, and upgrades to naval and air capabilities. Health care infrastructure and support for military families will also be expanded under the plan. Carney's plan is also expected to contain substantial funding to enhance domestic defense manufacturing and develop advanced technologies in cyber, artificial intelligence, space, and quantum computing. The strategy aims not only to meet NATO's current 2% guidance, but to prepare for potential future benchmarks discussed for the June 24-25 summit at The Hague that could raise the bar to 3.5% of GDP. The sudden acceleration contrasts sharply with former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's stance, who in 2023 projected Canada wouldn't reach 2% until 2032. He had previously referred to the NATO target as a 'crass mathematical calculation,' suggesting it overlooked qualitative contributions to the alliance.
