Al-Monitor

Al-Monitor is one of the 159 sources in Aperture's curated catalog. Add it to a desk and Aperture searches it alongside your other sources each morning, clusters its coverage with other outlets reporting the same event, and turns the result into one five-minute briefing with takeaways and actions.

Gulf, Levant and Iran coverage from outlets based in the region.

Al-Monitor is paywalled. Aperture never fetches the body of a subscription article. It takes the headline as a signal, finds free coverage of the same event, and briefs from that, linking you to the original so you can read it with your own subscription.
