PSLV C-56: ISRO launches the vehicle for 58th time; Places 7 Singapore satellites into orbit
The Indian Space Research Organisation has successfully launched the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle PSLV-C56, from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh.
The launch took place at 6:30 am from the first launch pad this morning.
ISRO Chairman S Somanath confirmed that 7 Singapore satellites â primary satellite DS-SAR and 6 co-passenger satellites, have been successfully placed in orbit.
This PSLV flight marks the 58th overall and the 17th using the Core Alone configuration.
The upper stage of the rocket was placed in a lower orbit after injecting all the satellites to assure its shorter orbital life.
PSLV-C56 / DS-SAR is the Dedicated Commercial Mission of NewSpace India Limited (NSIL) for ST Engineering, Singapore.
DS-SAR, a Radar Imaging Earth Observation satellite is the primary satellite for the mission.
Once deployed and operational, it will be used to support the satellite imagery requirements of various agencies within the Government of Singapore.
Carries a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) payload developed by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI).
This would allow the DS-SAR to provide all-weather day and night coverage and is capable of imaging at 1m resolution at full polarimetry.
Japan is set to export six Abukuma-class destroyer escorts to the Philippines in a landmark move aimed at countering Chinaâs growing aggression in the South China Sea. The aging destroyers, in service for over 30 years, will significantly boost the Philippinesâ naval capabilities, which currently lack such firepower. Defense ministers from both nations agreed to the deal in Singapore last month. Tokyo will frame the upgrades as a joint development project to bypass Japanâs pacifist export rules. The Philippines will inspect the ships this summer. This strategic partnership comes amid intensifying maritime tensions, as both Tokyo and Manila face growing challenges from Beijingâs territorial claims. The deal marks a new chapter in Asia-Pacific military realignment and is expected to draw a sharp response from China.

China has lashed out at U.S. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth following his remarks at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, where he warned that China could imminently use military force against Taiwan. Beijing condemned the speech as provocative and divisive, accusing Hegseth of inciting bloc confrontation and pushing a Cold War mentality. China's foreign ministry dismissed the U.S. accusations as defamatory and asserted that only Washington deserved the label of a hegemonic power. The fiery exchange underscores growing regional tensions over Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific power balance.
