Libya Launches Digital Platform for Commercial Ship Arrivals
According to a statement published on the ministry's official Facebook page, the move follows joint operational agreements between the Libya Trade Network (LTN), the Ports and Maritime Transport Authority, and the Chamber of Maritime Navigation.
The ministry confirmed that the system now enables port inspection offices to electronically receive arrival notices and cargo manifests for commercial vessels, using standardised templates and approved procedures.
This development is part of a broader modernisation programme led by the Ministry of Economy and Trade, in coordination with the Ministry of Transport, aimed at enhancing digitalisation and streamlining operations in trade-related sectors—particularly logistics.
The initiative reflects ongoing efforts to improve infrastructure and implement smart solutions across key sectors, with the goal of facilitating trade, reducing bureaucracy, and accelerating clearance processes at ports.
The Libya Trade Network is currently executing a comprehensive plan to support the ministry's digital transformation strategy, which includes upgrading digital infrastructure and improving Libya's standing in international trade facilitation and business environment rankings.
Officials have highlighted that the PTS platform represents a foundational step in transforming Libya's ports into more competitive and efficient gateways, essential for increasing transparency and reliability in commercial shipping operations.
This digital integration is expected to enhance coordination between government agencies and private stakeholders, promote compliance with international maritime standards, and attract more investment into Libya's trade and logistics sectors. Tags: economylibyaMaritimePTS

AI Could Replace Millions of Jobs: Robert Kiyosaki Shares How To Stay Safe
As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to advance, it will have a significant impact on the workforce as we know it. According to a recent McKinsey report, 30% of hours currently worked across the U.S. economy could be automated by 2030, and a National University report found that 300 million jobs could be lost to AI globally. Check Out: Read Next: 'Rich Dad Poor Dad' author Robert Kiyosaki views this as a major cause for concern, especially for those who are just entering the workforce. 'AI will cause many 'smart students' to lose their jobs,' he shared on X. 'AI will cause massive unemployment. Many still have student loan debt.' However, all hope is not lost, as Kiyosaki offered his advice on how to prevent AI from eliminating your income. Robert Kiyosaki: AI Can't Take a Job That You Don't Have Kiyosaki isn't personally worried that AI advances will affect his cash flow. 'AI cannot fire me because I do not have a job,' he wrote. Kiyosaki bucked a traditional path to wealth and instead relies on his own business and investments for his income. 'Years ago, rather than listen to my poor dad's advice of 'Go to school, get good grades, get a job, pay taxes, get out of debt, save money, and invest in a well-diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds and mutual funds,' I followed my rich dad's advice,' he said. 'I became an entrepreneur, investing in real estate using debt, and instead of saving fake money, I have been saving real gold, silver and, today, bitcoin.' Learn More: Kiyosaki's Advice for AI-Proofing Your Wealth To avoid losing your income to AI, Kiyosaki advised workers to take action now to diversify their income sources. This means meandering off the typical path to wealth and focusing on earning money through entrepreneurship and investments rather than being reliant on an employer. 'Please take proactive action,' he wrote. 'Please do not be a victim of this time in history. Please take care, invest in your self and think for yourself. These are not ordinary times.'

SpaceX launches 28 Starlink satellites days after service outage
July 26 (UPI) -- SpaceX early Saturday launched another 28 Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit from Florida, days after a short service outage hit the space-based internet provider. The Falcon 9 lifted off at 5:01 a.m. EDT from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station's Pad 40. The first-stage booster launched for the 22nd time, including Crew-6 and 17 previous Starlink missions. About 8 minutes after liftoff, the booster landed on "A Shortfall of Gravitas" drone ship stationed in the Atlantic Ocean. It was the 119th touchdown on the droneship and the 480th to date for SpaceX in Florida and California. This year, it was the 91st Falcon 9 launch, according to SpaceFlight Now. There are more than 8,000 Starlink satellites in orbit, according to astronomer Jonathan McDowell. On Thursday, Starlink users reported a rare full network outage of internet service. It began at 4 p.m. About 2 1/2 hours later, SpaceX announced most service had been restored. Then, 1 1/2 hours later, full service was back, Starlink reported. "The outage was due to failure of key internal software services that operate the core network," Michael Nicholls, vice president of Starlink Engineering at SpaceX wrote on X. "We apologize for the temporary disruption in our service; we are deeply committed to providing a highly reliable network, and will fully root cause this issue and ensure it does not occur again." There are more than 6 million Starlink customers worldwide, including 2 million in the United States after debuting in 2021. The next SpaceX launch is scheduled for 8:55 p.m. PDT Saturday from Vandenbrug Space Force Station's Pad 4E in California. An additional 24 Starlink satellites are scheduled for deployment.

2025 Tour de France standings going into final stage, with Tadej Pogačar set to win 2nd consecutive trophy
The 2025 Tour de France is set to complete its final stage on Sunday (July 27) and Slovenian cyclist Tadej Pogačar is poised to win the race for the second consecutive year. Going into Sunday's Stage 21, Pogačar has a lead of 4 minutes, 24 seconds over Denmark's Jonas Vingegaard, who won the 2022 and 2023 races. Australian rider Kaden Groves won Stage 20, but is not among the top 10 cyclists in the standings as the race advances to its final stage. The final stage is a 132.3km ride from Mantes-la-Jolie to Paris, cycling up the Butte Montmartre three times before the final laps of the race on the famed Champs-Elysees. Here is how the overall standings line up after Stage 20 was completed: Tadej Pogačar, Slovenia: 69 hours, 41 minutes, 46 seconds Jonas Vingegaard, Denmark: 69:46.10 (4 minutes, 24 seconds behind) Florian Lipowitz, Germany: 69:52.55 (11 minutes, 9 seconds behind) Oscar Onley, Great Britain: 69:53.58 (12 minutes, 12 seconds behind) Felix Gall, Austria: 69:58.58 (17 minutes, 12 seconds behind) Tobias Johannessen, Norway: 70:02.00 (20 minutes, 14 seconds behind) Kevin Vauquelin, France: 70:04.21 (22 minutes, 35 seconds behind) Primoz Roglic, Slovenia: 70:07.16 (25 minutes, 30 seconds behind) Ben Healy, Ireland: 70:09.48 (28 minutes, 2 seconds behind) Ben O'Connor, Australia: 70:16.20 (34 minutes, 34 seconds behind) A victory for Pogačar would be his fourth Tour de France win. He also won consecutive Coupe Omnisports trophies in 2020 and 2021, prior to Vingegaard's two straight wins. Last year's Tour de France victory made him only the third male cyclist in history to win the Triple Crown of Cycling, also finishing first in the Girl and the World Championsips during the same year.
