He underscores the need to enhance recruitment, particularly for the Army, Air Force, and Navy, to ensure national security against threats like those from Vladimir Putin.

Donald Trump’s high-stakes announcement of the $175 billion Golden Dome missile defense shield was dramatically overshadowed by pointed questions about Vladimir Putin and Ukraine. What began as a proud moment unveiling America’s most ambitious defense initiative quickly turned tense, as Trump was pressed on Ukrainian President Zelensky’s call for stricter sanctions on Russia. Snapping back, Trump asserted, “I determine that,” making it clear he alone would decide the course on Russia.

In a major update on Operation Sindoor, DGMO Lt. General Rajiv Ghai revealed that Pakistan launched repeated wave-style air attacks targeting Indian airfields and supply dumps between May 7 and May 10. All attacks were successfully thwarted by India’s integrated air defence systems. Meanwhile, heavy retaliatory action along the Line of Control resulted in the reported loss of 35 to 40 Pakistani soldiers due to artillery and small arms fire. This joint Indian Army and Air Force operation marks a significant escalation in India's military posture following the Pahalgam terror attack, reinforcing India's message of zero tolerance for cross-border aggression.

The U.S. has approved a major arms shipment to Israel, including 3,000 bombs, signaling preparation not just for Gaza, but possibly a strike on Iran. Israeli officials confirmed that these munitions will enhance Air Force readiness for large-scale operations. While the Gaza offensive takes global attention, analysts warn the real showdown may be brewing with Tehran. This deal, once frozen under Biden, was fast-tracked by Trump. Experts say the munitions can also target hardened Iranian facilities—raising fresh concerns about regional escalation and U.S. involvement in Israel-Iran tensions.
