Japan Builds Ocean Earthquake Shield As U.S. Risks Disaster With Blind Spot On Cascadia Fault [Video]

Japan Builds Ocean Earthquake Shield As U.S. Risks Disaster With Blind Spot On Cascadia Fault

Japan has completed the world’s most advanced undersea earthquake and tsunami detection system—3,500+ miles of fiber-optic cables linking 186 observatories across the ocean floor. It’s designed to warn citizens and infrastructure minutes ahead of massive quakes and tsunamis, a leap forward after the devastating 2011 disaster. The newly completed S-net and N-net networks allow near-instant detection of seismic activity along entire subduction zones. Meanwhile, Cardiff University in Wales has adapted nuclear explosion detectors to spot tsunamis faster than ever. But experts warn that the U.S. remains woefully behind—especially on the Pacific Northwest’s Cascadia megathrust fault. With just one cable and three sensors, the U.S. could face catastrophic consequences from a future magnitude 9.0 quake. Japan’s model could be the blueprint the rest of the world urgently needs. #Japan #Earthquake #Tsunami #SeafloorSensors #FiberOpticCables #CascadiaFault #SeismicNetwork #NaturalDisasters #TectonicPlates #QuakeWarning #Snet #Nnet #CardiffUniversity #Hydrophones #AISeismology #USvsJapan #TsunamiRisk #SlowSlip #GeologicalHazard #DisasterPreparedness

Hungary’s WW3 Warning: Ukraine’s EU Membership ‘Will DRAG’ Hungary Into Battlefield | Ukraine War [Video]

Hungary’s WW3 Warning: Ukraine’s EU Membership ‘Will DRAG’ Hungary Into Battlefield | Ukraine War

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has issued a chilling warning: Ukraine’s potential EU membership could drag Hungary and the entire Eastern European region into war. Speaking bluntly, Orban said Ukraine’s entry would turn Hungary into a battlefield, risking the lives of young Hungarians and destabilizing regional peace. Despite Ukraine’s 2022 EU candidacy and Brussels pushing for 2030 accession, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia have voiced serious opposition, citing security, financial, and political consequences. Orban also slammed the EU's seven-year budget proposal, claiming it's designed to fund Ukraine’s membership and could devastate the bloc. Hungary has already blocked several EU military aid packages to Kyiv and insists on a ceasefire. A recent referendum showed 95% of Hungarians oppose Ukraine’s EU entry. With mounting pressure from Brussels, Orban’s words now echo across a fragile Europe—will Ukraine’s EU dream come at the cost of continental peace? #UkraineEU #OrbanWarning #HungaryUkraine #EUMembershipCrisis #RussiaUkraineWar #EUExpansion #GeopoliticalRisk #EasternEuropeConflict #UkraineNews #HungaryNews #EUvsRussia #NATOExpansion #EuropeanUnion #BrusselsVsBudapest #HungarianReferendum #UkraineBorderCrisis #PolandUkraineTensions #SlovakiaOpposesUkraine #StopUkraineEU #RegionalWarThreat ~HT.318~

NATO Collapse Begins? Slovak PM Fico Stuns NATO with Pro-Russia Shift |€20B Russian Oil Deal at Risk

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico stunned NATO and EU allies after rejecting proposed sanctions on Russian energy, calling them “ideological” and harmful to Slovakia’s economy. At a press conference, Fico questioned why Slovakia should pay high gas prices due to the Ukraine conflict, citing a €16–20 billion contract with Gazprom lasting until 2034. He warned of potential lawsuits if the contract is broken and predicted that “we’ll all cooperate with Russia again.” His remarks underline a growing rift in Europe over energy strategy and long-term Russian ties. #RussiaSanctions #RussiaUkraineWar #Russia #Ukraine #NATO #Slovakia #NATOAllies #Putin #RussianOil #SlovakPM #GasPrices #EnergyCrisis #RussiaUkraine #EuropeanUnion #GasContract #FicoStatement #EnergyNews #SlovakiaRussia #BreakingNews #RobertFico Also Read Russia May Attack THIS European Country After Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-may-attack-this-european-country-after-ukraine-4176043.html?ref=DMDesc 'Something Happened To This Guy': Trump Slams Putin For Russia's Fresh Attack On Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/something-happened-to-this-guy-trump-slams-putin-for-russias-fresh-attack-on-ukraine-4163675.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Says Russia-Ukraine Ceasefire Talks To Begin 'Immediately' Following Call With Putin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-says-russia-ukraine-ceasefire-talks-to-begin-immediately-following-call-with-putin-4158165.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.125~
