Small teams of special operations forces arrived at American embassies across North Africa in the months before a deadly Libya attack that killed the U S ambassador. The mission was to build a rapid response network for strikes or hostage rescues, but counterterrorism work in Libya by these teams remained limited despite a White House plan approved a year earlier. Officials spoke anonymously due to sensitivity.

Pa judge blocks photo ID law for Election Day
Commonwealth Court Judge Robert Simpson ruled Pennsylvania voters on November 6 may cast ballots without photo identification. The decision delays enforcement, citing uncertainties in providing IDs beforehand and possible voter disenfranchisement if the law took effect now. Election workers may still ask for ID but tasks remain provisional and nonprovisional ballots are waived for those lacking ID.
