• Sykes–Picot Agreement Signed A confidential diplomatic accord between the United Kingdom and France was signed, outlining their strategic territorial claims in the Arab regions of the Ottoman Empire. The agreement, negotiated by Sir Mark Sykes and French diplomat François Georges-Picot, proposed a comprehensive partition of territories in the Middle East, anticipating the potential defeat of the Central Powers during World War I. This secret treaty would have profound and long-lasting geopolitical implications, effectively drawing arbitrary borders that would reshape the region's political landscape for decades to come.

The restructuring represented a critical evolution of Britain's intelligence capabilities during the intense geopolitical tensions of World War I, setting the foundation for modern intelligence and counterintelligence practices.
