韩国旅游业持续回暖，连续第四个月实现旅行收支顺差，6月更是录得近6亿美元（约7.6亿新元）顺差，为冠病疫情后最高。

韩联社引述韩国观光公社星期天（8月9日）发布的最新数据报道，韩国6月的旅行收入为27亿8400万美元，旅行支出为21亿8740万美元，实现5亿9660万美元的顺差。

数据显示，访韩外国人人均支出为1397美元，高于韩国人在境外的人均支出1091美元。

冠病疫情重创韩国旅游业，从2020年3月至2026年2月，韩国旅行收支连续72个月出现逆差，直到今年3月才扭亏为盈。

AI摘要

• 美国首次将复旦大学、上海交大等中国顶尖民用高校列入国安限制名单，限制美国防部资助项目与其合作。
• 中国随即把波兰弗罗茨瓦夫理工大学纳入出口管制名单，系首次针对外国民用大学，因其涉军用AI与无人机研发。
• 学者指出，军民两用技术模糊了学术与国防界限，大学正被纳入国家安全体系，引发科研“寒蝉效应”。
• 全球科研或现“选择性裂解”：敏感领域合作受限，但气候、公共卫生等领域仍保持国际联系。

美国五角大楼7月23日首次将不具军工背景的复旦大学和上海交通大学，列入依据2019年《国防授权法案》设立的“第1286条名单”，认定它们可能对美国国家安全及科研诚信构成风险。图为上海交通大学李政道研究所。 （新华社）

美国和中国近来先后将外国民用大学纳入限制名单，过去较少处于地缘政治风口的学术机构，如今正被推向科技竞争前沿。

美国国防部上月底首次将复旦大学和上海交通大学两所中国顶尖综合性大学列入国家安全限制名单；一天后，中国商务部也首次将欧洲一所民用大学——波兰弗罗茨瓦夫理工大学（Wrocław University of Science and Technology）列入出口管制名单。

受访学者认为，这反映大学日趋被纳入国家安全和科技竞争范畴。全球科研体系短期内不会因此形成两个对立的“知识阵营”，但相关措施带来的“寒蝉效应”可能削弱跨境合作，并促使更多国家重新审视科研安全。

美国五角大楼7月23日首次将不具军工背景的复旦大学和上海交通大学，列入依据2019年《国防授权法案》设立的“第1286条名单”，认定它们可能对美国国家安全及科研诚信构成风险。

根据规定，接受美国国防部资助的研究人员原则上不得与名单内机构开展相关合作，并须申报相关关联。美国国防部说，此举旨在防止美国政府资助的科研成果被用于军事或其他战略用途。

来自“国防七子”等八所院校 中国留学生签证被拒 拟集体起诉美国政府

事实上，美国近年来已将数十所中国高校列入各类限制或制裁名单。制裁对象早期主要是“国防七子”等军工背景院校，包括哈尔滨工业大学、哈尔滨工程大学、北京航空航天大学、北京理工大学、南京航空航天大学、南京理工大学和西北工业大学，如今则逐步延伸至顶尖民用综合性大学。此次将复旦大学和上海交通大学纳入限制范围，显示美国愈发将中国顶尖高校视为国家科技竞争体系的一环，并担忧科研成果可能服务于军民融合战略。

中国也开始采取类似做法。中国商务部7月24日宣布，将14家欧盟实体列入两用物项出口管制名单，其中除德国、法国等国的军工企业和无人机企业外，也包括波兰弗罗茨瓦夫理工大学。这是中国首次将一所外国民用理工科大学与军工企业一并纳入出口管制名单。

中国商务部没有说明弗罗茨瓦夫理工大学为何被列入名单。但据中国媒体观察者网报道，弗罗茨瓦夫理工大学参与欧盟军事无人机与战场人工智能（AI）的研发工作，与军工企业密切合作，也在材料科学、光子学、半导体、网络安全以及多项欧盟防务基金项目中发挥重要作用。

分析指出，大学成为管制对象，反映军民技术界限日益模糊。AI、量子计算、半导体、生物技术等军民两用技术，大多源自大学和科研机构。各国不断加强对关键技术的保护后，大学正从知识生产机构，逐渐成为国安与出口管制关注的新对象。

美国“德国马歇尔基金会”亚洲项目执行主任葛来仪（Bonnie Glaser）认为，将学术机构纳入国家安全限制名单，很可能成为大国战略竞争中的“持久特征，而非暂时现象”。

她向《联合早报》分析，这是由三项结构性变化推动：首先，AI、量子计算、半导体等兼具军民两用属性的领域，使大学成为创新体系的重要源头；其次，各国政府愈发关注技术转让、研究安全及关键技术外流；第三，中美战略竞争不断深化，使国家安全范围扩展至知识、数据和前沿科研领域。

新加坡南洋理工大学公共政策与全球事务副教授骆明辉认为，限制名单值得关注的并非法规约束范围，而是政治环境产生的“寒蝉效应”。即使法规没有明文禁止，大学和研究人员也可能因为担心影响政府科研经费、触犯监管规定或引发政治争议，而主动减少与相关国家高校的合作。

他说：“比方说，即使某个学者从事非敏感领域研究，不涉具有军民两用性质的工程技术，也可能为安全起见，而选择避免与名单上的大学建立关系。”

骆明辉以供应链变化为例说，供应链过去主要强调效率和成本，但在美中竞争加剧后，逐渐被纳入国家安全考量，各国开始推动“友岸外包”和供应链重组。如今，高等教育和科研合作也可能经历类似变化，大学选择合作伙伴时，也会考虑政治风险、资金来源和国家安全。

这意味着，科研合作未必会出现一道“墙”，却可能出现越来越多看不见的边界：研究人员减少合作，大学加强审查，政府科研资金附加更多条件，敏感领域的设备、数据和实验室资源共享也可能变得更困难。

美国昆西研究所高级研究员西蒙（Denis Simon）判断，全球科研体系可能出现“选择性裂解”，而非迅速形成美国、中国各自领导的两个“知识阵营”。AI、量子信息、部分半导体技术、密码学及高超音速等敏感领域的合作将日益受限，数学、气候科学、公共卫生、天文学等领域则仍会保持较强国际联系。

他说，美国和中国仍将是全球最大的两个科研生态体系，但欧盟、日本、韩国、新加坡、澳大利亚、印度和海湾国家等不一定完全倒向任何一方。与此同时，全球争夺顶尖科研人才的竞争也会加剧，人才选择工作地点时，考虑的不再只是薪酬和科研经费，也包括签证、监管负担及国际合作限制。

上海国际关系学者沈丁立认为，学术本就难以完全脱离政治，理工科研更与国防安全密切相关，因此“这种趋势还会继续”。对于未来大学管理是否将纳入更多国家安全考量，他直言：“这已经变成日常。”

骆明辉也判断，随着跨境合作门槛提高，大学长期承担的“二轨外交”功能也可能弱化。过去，即使中美关系紧张，学者仍可通过联合研究、学术会议和人员交流维持沟通；如今政治风险上升，中美学术交流愈趋谨慎，这类二轨交流恐受抑制。不过，他认为，这种影响主要将体现在中美之间，其他国家之间或其他国家与中美的学术交流，则未必受到同等程度冲击。

Roman shipwreck discovered off the coast of Sicily, Italy laden with ancient jars believed to be more than 2,000 years old

August 9, 2026 / 6:00 AM EDT / CBS/AFP

Italian divers have discovered the 2,100-year-old wreck of a Roman ship off Sicily, piled high with hundreds of well-preserved ancient clay jars, known as amphorae, which were likely used to transport wine.

The wreck, dubbed by Italy’s Culture Minister Alessandro Giuli as “one of the most important underwater archaeological discoveries of recent years”, was found some three miles off the coast of Mazara del Vallo.

Divers from the cultural heritage protection arm of Palermo’s police said Saturday they had located the ship, thought to date to between the 2nd and 1st centuries BC, some 150 feet down, after a tip-off from fishermen.

In an Instagram post, underwater fishermen Giacomo De Mola described seeing “something” on his boat’s underwater scanner which resembled a rock. De Mola said he decided to dive and investigate anyway, when he stumbled upon what he described as “without a doubt, the most incredible discovery of my life.”

“Visibility wasn’t the best… I got closer. And my heart stopped. Below me was a vast expanse of amphorae,” De Mola said in the instagram post, along with video footage of the discovery.

He said he “immediately” reported the discovery to the Superintendent of the sea of the Sicilian Region.

“It’s hard to explain what it feels like to be among the first human beings, after almost twenty centuries, to see that place again,” he said.

The ship, reported in local media to be some 21 metres long and six metres wide, was mostly carrying Dressel 1A amphorae, which were tall and cylindrical, and mainly used for carrying wine.

Democratic senators are still backing Maine Senate nominee Troy Jackson, who replaced former candidate Graham Platner on the ballot, after the latest allegations threaten to yet again shake up the race for U.S. Senate in the Pine Tree State.

Platner, following a series of scandals culminating in sexual misconduct claims, was forced to drop out ahead of the Democratic primary to take on Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, earlier this summer. But now, a bombshell report claims Platner’s replacement fathered two children with his second cousin.

The recent report wasn’t enough to turn lawmakers against Jackson, with most stressing the necessity for Democrats to win swing state races in order to win back a majority in the upper chamber — not an easy feat in Maine, where Collins, a moderate, has represented the state in the Senate since 1997.

Maine’s other senator, independent Angus King, said: “I have no idea what you’re talking about, and I’m not going to comment on it anyway.”

Every senator who Fox News Digital spoke with on the issue this week denied having knowledge of the report.

“I don’t know anything about that, but what I do know is that we have got to elect Democrats up and down the ballot,” Sen. Angela Alsobrooks, D-Md., told Fox News Digital.

“I haven’t heard of these reports,” Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., echoed. “Troy Jackson is somebody who’s obviously in this fight for working people.”

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., ignored the crux of the question. “I think it’s super important that we win that seat so that we can put an end to the wild cost increases and rampant corruption that the Senate right now is indulging,” he said.

INTERNET ERUPTS OVER REPORT THAT PLATNER’S REPLACEMENT IN KEY SENATE RACE FATHERED CHILDREN WITH SECOND COUSIN

The Maine Wire editor Steven Robinson first reported last week that Jackson shares two children with his second cousin, Lana Pelletier. In posting the genealogical findings, the independent journalist claimed Pelletier’s father is a cousin of Jackson’s mother.

The report made waves after Jackson received 94% of the 601 delegate votes in the process this summer to replace Platner, who dropped out of the race after a rape allegation finally forced his Democrat allies to turn against him. Platner denied the claim, among others made against him, but ultimately it was the nail in the coffin that resulted in him ending his bid for U.S. Senate before the deadline for Democrats to get a new candidate on the Maine primary ballot.

Without directly denying the report, Jackson’s campaign said in a previous statement to Fox News Digital that it was an attack campaign from the Collins camp.

“Susan Collins will do anything to distract from the fact that she votes with Trump 96% of the time and has sold out working people in Maine. Personal attacks on Troy’s family are shameful and desperate,” the statement read.

Jackson’s campaign did not respond to Fox News Digital’s request for additional comment on the reporting.

“Haven’t seen it,” Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., said when asked on Capitol Hill about the reports.

Ossoff initially avoided saying whether he’d back Jackson. Instead, he pointed to Michigan’s Democratic race, which the far-left progressive Abdul El-Sayed won on Wednesday, before addressing his support for Jackson.

“I’m supporting our nominee in Michigan,” Ossoff replied when asked if he would be endorsing Jackson. “In Maine, we’ll see who wins.”

Many senators credited their support for Jackson and other Democrat candidates running for office as a broader effort to target Republicans and their agendas — both within the Donald Trump administration and in Congress.

“We have a president who today, again, has no strategic plan about getting us out of that war in Iran, where our children are dying on the battlefield while his are getting rich,” Alsobrooks said.

A recent Fox News Poll found that 56% of voters oppose U.S. military action against Iran, with 40% strongly opposing the war, indicating the ongoing conflict might play a role in how voters show up in November.

Alsobrooks said she is supporting the Democratic nominee “in every single state,” again indirectly backing Jackson, to ensure her party takes back the majority in Congress.

“I’m supporting whoever the nominee, in every single state, the Democratic nominee,” Alsobrooks said. “We are going to have to take back the House and take back the Senate as well so that we can bring down the cost of living, get people healthcare again.”

胡塞武装称对红海港口城市摩卡发动大规模袭击

2026年8月9日 18:57 / 联合早报

也门胡塞武装称，对驻扎在具有战略意义的红海港口城市摩卡（Mocha）获沙特阿拉伯支持的部队发动大规模袭击，造成数十人伤亡。

胡塞武装军方发言人萨雷亚（Yahya Sarea）星期天（8月9日）在社交媒体平台X上发文说，武装部队以沙特在也门西部泰伊兹（Taiz）省摩卡地区的集结点和武器库为目标，实施一次大规模、高精度军事打击。

胡塞武装称，袭击使用大量弹道导弹和无人机，对目标造成大规模破坏，并造成数十人死亡和受伤，其中包括沙特人。

当天早些时候，胡塞武装也利用无人机，袭击沙特一座靠近也门边境的炼油厂，造成大火，所幸无人伤亡。

此前，胡塞武装星期四（6日）袭击沙特南部地区，造成11名平民受伤，其中包括一名4岁儿童，招致利雅得方面谴责。胡塞武装同天还袭击也门境内政府军集结地，导致近60人死亡。

美国对伊朗战争消耗大量武器 恐削弱对中俄威慑力

（华盛顿综合电）美国高级官员透露，由于美国总统特朗普对伊朗的军事行动消耗大量武器，美国武器库存已降至令人担忧的水平，本应用于亚洲和欧洲的物资也因此被抽调到中东。专家警告，万一中国和俄罗斯考虑向美国发起冲突，这种情况可能会让它们更胆大妄为。

《纽约时报》星期六（8月8日）引述美国官员报道，为支持对伊朗的战争，五角大楼被迫把舰艇、飞机和防空部队，从欧洲和亚洲调往中东，这对装备维护和部队士气造成负面影响。

美国和西方高级官员说，此举导致美国在欧洲和亚洲地区的火力大幅削弱，美国军方和情报界日益担心这可能引发长期问题。

尽管白宫称美国拥有足够火力，可以随时在任何地点执行总统下令采取的任何行动，但专家预计，这场弹药危机将持续到特朗普总统任期结束之后。

战略与国际问题研究中心（CSIS）高级研究员卡拉科（Tom Karako）说，当前美国弹药耗尽的情况，意味着美国的常规威慑手段遭受足以影响一代人的毁灭性打击。

他告诉《纽时》：“这肯定会对俄罗斯和中国的决策考量产生重大影响。它们可能会在自行选择的时间点，采取经过深思熟虑的行动，因为我们需要数年时间才能重建库存。”

美国企业研究所国防分析员哈里森（Todd Harrison）也指出：“这场战争持续越久……美国弹药短缺问题就更严重，处境脆弱的窗口也就越大且越显著。”

如果美国与中国或俄罗斯爆发战争，远程导弹将发挥至关重要的作用，因为中俄的防空系统远比伊朗先进。

一名熟悉国防情报的美国官员说，中俄两国都在密切监测美国的库存，它们不仅利用国会预算程序和国防承包商公告等公开渠道，还动用间谍卫星和其他监视系统来进行估算和侦察。

《纽时》引述知情者说，美国已在与伊朗的战事中消耗1500多枚爱国者导弹，目前库存还不到1700枚。报道指出，即使特朗普政府要求加快和扩大生产，但补充消耗掉的导弹仍须两年多时间。

另据《华盛顿邮报》引述五角大楼的一份备忘录报道，美国战争部副部长范伯格星期三（5日）致函美国军工企业负责人，要求他们在21天内提交计划，以大幅加快武器交付进度，同时提高关键装备的产能。

Three in five Americans favor stronger oversight of social media companies, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds

WASHINGTON, Aug 9 (Reuters) – A bipartisan majority of Americans support more government rules for how ​social media companies conduct business, including a requirement of age-verification tools to keep younger children off social media, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll.

The poll, ‌which was conducted over the six days ending August 3, comes as companies like Meta Platforms and Google’s YouTube face mounting legal pressure over their treatment of young users. A trial is expected to begin on Wednesday over allegations by state prosecutors that Meta designed its products to addict young users.

Meta, which denies the allegations, says it could face up to $1.4 trillion in penalties if the states prevail. ​A New Mexico state court on Thursday separately ordered Meta to pay $567 million into a teen mental health fund and change how its platforms function for young ​users, after finding the company is to blame for harming children’s wellbeing.

Tech companies are also under increasing scrutiny by lawmakers across the ⁠U.S. for their effect on youth. More than a dozen states have passed laws regulating minors’ social media access, saying it is needed to bolster their safety online. NetChoice, ​a trade group backed by social media giants such as Meta, TikTok and Snap, has sued to stop laws requiring apps verify the ages of their users. It argues such laws violate free ​speech protections.

Some 61% of poll respondents – including 71% of Democrats and 62% of Republicans – said social media companies need firmer oversight. Support among independents was lower as many of them said they were unsure where they stood.

The poll also found 66% support laws that would require social media companies use age-verification tools to keep children under age 16 from accessing their platforms. Support was highest among Republicans, ​with 74% backing the idea, compared to 69% of Democrats.

‘SOMEBODY’S GOT TO DO IT’

James Bosserdet, a 60-year-old mechanical engineer from Tennessee who voted for Republican President Donald Trump ​in the 2024 election, said he mostly wants the U.S. government to have a smaller role in Americans’ lives, but that cracking down on social media companies is an exception.

“Somebody’s got to ‌do it,” he ⁠said, referring to setting restrictions on social media for kids. “Is it the government’s job? I don’t want it to be. I think maybe it should be.”

The U.S. Congress has so far not passed legislation aimed at protecting kids on social media.

An overwhelming majority of Americans – 85% – think social media can be addictive for children, and a similar share think its use can be harmful for their mental health, the Reuters/Ipsos poll found. Washington, D.C., resident Christopher Chen, 34, said he thinks social media companies have an outsized influence on teens, ​adding that the tech firms have too ​much control over what their users see ⁠on their apps.

“I don’t know what the regulation looks like, but something needs to be done by the government to protect the people,” said Chen, who voted for Trump’s 2024 Democratic opponent, Kamala Harris.

Paula Dick, 73, said social media companies could do a ​better job keeping kids away from inappropriate content, adding that there should be more government oversight of the apps they use. ​Dick said she doesn’t ⁠allow her grandchildren to use YouTube when she watches them, but they have found ways to access it anyway. Dick, who lives in Kansas, voted for Trump in 2024.

“They have workarounds to get around blocks that their parents have put on their phones,” she said. “They’re pretty intelligent when it comes to that.”

USERS LIKE SOCIAL MEDIA

But Americans also say they like social media ⁠a lot, ​with 70% saying their time spent on the platforms is fun, while only 35% say it stressed them ​out. People are split on whether they are overdoing it, with 52% saying they spend too much time every day on social media, and 43% saying that’s not the case.

The Reuters/Ipsos poll, which was conducted online, ​surveyed 4,505 U.S. adults and had a margin of error of 2 percentage points in either direction.

IN CHARTS: A visual breakdown of the Smithsonian’s billion-dollar taxpayer-funded budget

Historian sounds alarm on Smithsonian’s shifting priorities after recent visit

Dr. Jody Edward Ginn, historian and museum professional, told Fox News Digital the Smithsonian has shifted from education to activism after his recent visit.

The Smithsonian has relied on more than $1 billion a year in taxpayer funding in recent years even as its leadership and exhibits face mounting scrutiny over DEI priorities and ideological portrayals of American history.

The sprawling institution oversees 21 museums, the National Zoo and nearly 157 million objects and specimens, making it the world’s largest museum, education and research complex. President Donald Trump’s proposed budget reductions have made its federal funding a central pressure point in the administration’s broader effort to reshape the taxpayer-supported institution.

Since the White House released a July 2026 report accusing the Smithsonian Institution of advancing DEI and left-wing agendas, Fox News Digital has documented multiple examples. Most recently, the Smithsonian’s America 250 exhibit featured roughly three times as many items highlighting liberal figures and causes as conservative ones, prompting criticism that it presented an ideologically imbalanced account of American history.

Other examples included the Smithsonian’s promotion of a museum training guide that linked concepts such as objectivity and merit to “white dominant culture,” a program the institution later apologized for after public backlash.

Meanwhile, Smithsonian Secretary Lonnie Bunch III has faced scrutiny after saying DEI “must be at the center” of museum institutions, while receiving more than $4.4 million in salary and benefits from 2020 through 2024.

The White House’s proposed funding reduction follows a months-long, Trump-directed review that culminated in a 162-page White House report recommending sweeping reforms and additional executive action.

Although the Smithsonian also receives private donations, grants and other funding sources, the institution has relied on more than $1 billion annually in taxpayer funds in recent years.

With taxpayer dollars at stake, the institution’s budget has become a central front in the Trump administration’s broader debate over how the Smithsonian presents American history.

The charts below break down how the Smithsonian’s federal funding has changed over time, where the money would go and which museums receive the largest share of taxpayer support.

A Fox News Digital analysis of Smithsonian budget requests shows the institution sought increasingly larger federal appropriations during the Biden administration, with annual requests climbing from $960 million in fiscal 2019 to a record $1.24 billion in fiscal 2024.

Made with Flourish•Create a chart

After requesting more than $1 billion in fiscal year 2025, the Trump administration proposed budgets below that threshold for fiscal years 2026 and 2027, the first such requests since fiscal year 2020.

While the overall budget has fluctuated over the years, the bulk of the Smithsonian’s federal funding is dedicated to keeping the institution operating day to day.

The Smithsonian’s budget is less about new exhibits than keeping the institution running.

Of the nearly $960 million federal budget request, a little more than $524 million funds the Smithsonian’s day-to-day operations, including staff, security, facilities and technology.

Made with Flourish•Create a chart

Another $310 million finances museum activity and research, while the rest supports building improvements, planning and oversight.

Not all Smithsonian museums receive the same level of taxpayer support.

The National Museum of Natural History tops the 2026 funding requests at $51 million, followed by the National Museum of the American Indian at nearly $35 million. Meanwhile, the National Zoo receives about $34 million in funding, while the National Museum of American History accounts for $27 million.
