China’s long-range hypersonic missile that was tested only a few months ago reportedly “went around the world” according to the second most senior general in the United States

Talking to CBS News, the official says China launched a long-range weapon that flew around the earth, “dropped off a hypersonic glide vehicle that glided all the way back to China and struck a target”.

This follows the general previously warning that the pace of Beijing’s military advancement is “stunning” – and says a surprise nuclear attack could one day be launched against the United States.

Tensions also remain high over Taiwan as China seeks to expand its weapon’s capabilities with rumours the nation may have 1,000 nuclear warheads by the end of the decade.

The US currently has almost 4-thousand nuclear warheads in its stockpile…

As China and Russia continue developing their own hypersonic missiles, the Pentagon is ensuring developing its own versions is now a top priority.

Israel expands military strikes in Lebanon

Israel has widened its military operations in Lebanon, launching a deadly airstrike in the northern region. The attack, which targeted a house sheltering displaced families, killed at least 21 people, leaving eight others injured, according to health officials. Rescue workers are still searching through the rubble for survivors.

This shift marks a significant escalation, as Israel had previously focused its strikes on the south, the Bekaa Valley, and Beirut’s outskirts. Meanwhile, millions of Israelis are taking cover from cross-border rocket fire as the violence intensifies. Israel has also ordered the evacuation of 25 villages in southern Lebanon. Prime Minister Netanyahu vowed to continue targeting Hezbollah “without mercy,” even extending operations to Beirut. In eastern Lebanon, civilians like Jalal Ferhat and his family have fled toward the Syrian border in a desperate attempt to escape the worsening conflict.
