NUCLEAR STOCKPILE: Russia Surpasses U.S in Warheads | Israel & N. Korea with Undeclared SECRET Nukes

With World War 3 fears looming and nuclear tensions rising, just 9 nations possess nuclear weapons—led by Russia (5,449) and the U.S. (5,277). China, India, Pakistan, and others follow far behind. While 7 countries have officially declared their arsenals, Israel and North Korea remain ambiguous. Over 12,000 nuclear warheads exist today, a stark drop from Cold War highs, yet each bomb holds devastating potential. As deterrence theory dominates global policy, growing voices now demand complete nuclear disarmament to save humanity. #NuclearWeapons #WorldWar3 #NuclearTensions #Russia #USA #China #India #Israel #NorthKorea #Pakistan #France #UK #DeNuclearisation #MutuallyAssuredDestruction #NuclearArmsRace #Hiroshima #Nagasaki #AtomicThreat #GlobalSecurity #NukeStats #NuclearPower #NuclearPolicy #ArmsControl #NuclearFacts #NuclearStates #Geopolitics #WW3Alert #ColdWarLegacy #NuclearWarheads #FASData #HumanSurvival #PeaceNotWar Also Read US Intelligence Assessed Iran Isn’t Building Nukes; Trump Disagreed With Finding :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-experts-asserted-that-iran-is-not-making-nukes-trump-rejected-their-observation-4184805.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Supported Israel's Plan To Kill Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei: US Officials :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-supported-israels-plan-to-kill-iran-supreme-leader-ayatollah-ali-khamenei-us-offici-4182653.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's Defence Minister Says 'Tehran Will Burn' If... :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israels-defence-minister-says-tehran-will-burn-if-4181667.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~

Triple Threat to Trump|Moscow, Beijing, Tehran in a huddle over Nuclear Programme to challenge U.S

Russia, China, and Iran are set to hold high-level trilateral talks to counter renewed EU threats of snapback sanctions over Iran’s nuclear program. Tehran claims the U.S. is not part of any negotiation and rejects new IAEA demands as biased and unlawful. While France, Britain, and Germany warn of penalties unless Iran complies, Moscow and Beijing back Tehran’s call for diplomacy. Separate Iran-EU talks in Istanbul are scheduled, but Iran maintains it will not engage with the U.S., escalating nuclear tensions ahead of a critical month. #IranNuclearDeal #RussiaChinaIran #NuclearTalks #SnapbackSanctions #IAEA #IranUS #Trump #Putin #XiJinping #Khamenei #Araghchi #TehranDiplomacy #IranNuclearCrisis #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #IranSanctions #ChinaIranAlliance #RussiaIran #NuclearStandoff #USIranTensions #DiplomaticCrisis #JCPOA #NoTalksWithUS #IranEnergyProgram #TehranStatement #IranEU #IstanbulTalks #WesternPressure #MiddleEastNews #UNSecurityCouncil #TrumpThreat #IranRejectsIAEA ~ED.194~HT.408~

BREAKING: Germany, U.S RUSH Patriot Systems To Ukraine As Tension With Russia Hits Breaking Point

In a dramatic escalation of Western military support to Ukraine, Germany and the United States are sending five Patriot air defense systems to Kyiv "as soon as possible." The announcement, revealed by Ukrainian media and confirmed by German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, comes amid rising Russian aerial assaults and drone warfare in key battle zones. Pistorius stressed that coordination with international partners would be finalized “within the next few days,” underlining a fast-tracked response to urgent Ukrainian defense needs. This deployment marks one of the most significant reinforcement efforts from NATO-aligned countries since the war began. Patriot systems, capable of intercepting missiles and aircraft at high altitudes, will enhance Ukraine’s capability to defend strategic infrastructure and urban centers. The plan also signals deepening U.S.-German military coordination and Western resolve to counter Russian advances. Kyiv has repeatedly called for stronger air defense amid relentless Russian bombardments of civilian and energy targets. #Ukraine #Germany #USA #PatriotMissiles #AirDefense #RussiaUkraineWar #KyivDefense #NATO #MilitarySupport #Zelensky #Putin #BorisPistorius #USMilitaryAid #Berlin #DefenseSystems #UkrainianArmy #WarInUkraine #BreakingNews #MissileDefense #Geopolitics Also Read AI Chatbots Like ChatGPT Reshape Human Communication Patterns And Language Use :: https://www.oneindia.com/artificial-intelligence/ai-chatbots-impact-on-human-communication-011-7801899.html?ref=DMDesc US Will Send Patriot Missiles To Ukraine: Trump Takes U-Turn Over Arm Deliveries To Kyiv :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-send-patriot-missiles-to-ukraine-trump-takes-u-turn-over-arm-deliveries-to-kyiv-011-7800325.html?ref=DMDesc BSF Wins 73 Medals at World Police and Fire Games 2025, Including 38 Gold :: https://www.oneindia.com/press-release/bsf-wins-73-medals-at-world-police-and-fire-games-2025-including-38-gold-011-7796027.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~
