Japan, which resulted in the deaths of eight people.
The incident took place during a November 29
training exercise near Yakushima Island.
.
According to the Pentagon, a CV-22B was transporting
eight U.S. service members between locations in the South
China Sea when a malfunction caused the aircraft to crash.
While the Pentagon has identified all eight
service members aboard the CV-22B,
only six of their bodies have been recovered.
Following the crash, the Japanese Defense Forces,
which operated 14 of its own Ospreys,
ordered the aircraft to be grounded.

Preliminary investigation information
indicates a potential material
failure caused the mishap,
but the underlying cause of
the failure is unknown at this time, Air Force Special Operations Command statement, via 'Vice'.
The stand-down will provide time
and space for a thorough investigation
to determine causal factors and
recommendations to ensure
the Air Force CV-22 fleet
returns to flight operations, Air Force Special Operations Command statement, via 'Vice'.
'Vice' reports that the V-22 has
experienced a series of similar incidents
since its deployment in 2007.
Just this year, one Marine was injured in
an October crash, while three other Marines
died in an August Osprey crash in Australia.

In June of 2022, another Osprey crash
caused the deaths of five other Marines.
The Pentagon has confirmed it is conducting a “capability review” to reassess whether military aid to Ukraine aligns with America’s shifting defense priorities. Chief spokesperson Sean Parnell said the U.S. is taking a hard look at promised weapons deliveries — some of which are now halted — to ensure national interests come first. The move follows the White House’s decision to stop key shipments of air defense ammunition, artillery shells, and missiles previously pledged under the Biden administration.
With President Trump’s “America First” policy reshaping foreign aid strategy, the Pentagon appears to be pivoting away from prolonged foreign entanglements. Ukrainian officials have slammed the halt as betrayal, warning it weakens their resistance against Russia’s advances. Meanwhile, analysts say this could signal a major realignment in U.S. global commitments — and a boost for Russian military strategy. Is Washington walking away from Kyiv?

In a fiery Pentagon briefing, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth lashed out at the media, accusing them of "cheering against Trump" and downplaying the success of Operation Midnight Hammer — a bold series of U.S. airstrikes targeting Iran's nuclear sites. Hegseth defended the mission’s results, slammed leaks of low-confidence intelligence reports, and praised the courage of American pilots and defense crews. With tensions high and politics in play, the Secretary warned that biased reporting could overshadow what he called a “historic” blow to Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

The Pentagon revealed that every weapon deployed in the recent U.S. strike on Iran had a pre-assigned target — and none missed. Officials emphasized the unprecedented precision of the operation, which focused on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure and command hubs. The statement underscores the effectiveness of American airpower, particularly the deployment of GBU-57 bunker busters, and suggests a major degradation of Iran’s strategic capabilities.

Vishal Yadav, a Navy HQ clerk, has been arrested for leaking sensitive military data to Pakistan’s ISI, including during Operation Sindoor — India’s retaliatory strike post the Pahalgam terror attack. Yadav was reportedly lured online by a female ISI handler posing as "Priya Sharma." Forensic scans showed data transfers and chats over several years. He was paid in crypto. A wider espionage crackdown is underway, with multiple suspects under interrogation. The breach raises serious national security concerns amid heightened Indo-Pak tensions.

Tensions escalated in the South China Sea after China warned the European Union to stop “provoking trouble” and stay out of its territorial disputes with the Philippines. The sharp rebuke followed EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas' visit to Manila, where she voiced concern over China's assertive actions. Beijing insisted the EU has no legal or diplomatic role in the matter, cautioning Manila not to rely on outside powers for resolution. The statement underscores China's hardened stance as geopolitical fault lines deepen in the contested maritime zone.

A sweeping immigration crackdown in Southern California has triggered widespread fear and fury. Over 100 workers — including legal residents — have been detained in surprise ICE raids across LA’s fashion district and Home Depot lots. Families are now left searching for answers. Protests have erupted citywide, with demonstrators blocking highways and clashing with law enforcement. President Trump has deployed National Guard troops and Marines to the LA area, escalating tensions further. Mayor Karen Bass has condemned the raids as an intimidation tactic targeting LA’s vast immigrant community — nearly a million of whom lack legal status. What does this mean for immigrant rights in America?
