WWII Ship Sinks Before U.S.-Philippines Drill | BRP Malvar Goes Down Near Disputed Shoal

The BRP Miguel Malvar, an 80-year-old World War II ship, sank unexpectedly before it could be used as a live-fire target in the U.S.-Philippine Balikatan drills.

Originally set to be sunk off Zambales, rough seas and the vessel's age caused it to go under prematurely.

The Malvar held historical value as a former U.S. Navy ship that once hunted Japanese submarines.

Although the target drill was canceled, joint military exercises continued near the disputed Scarborough Shoal, highlighting growing U.S.-Philippine cooperation in deterring China's presence in the South China Sea.

USS Nimitz: U.S’ Flagship Aircraft Carrier Heads West | Israel’s Power Boosted | Headache for Iran

The U.S. appears to be stepping directly into the escalating Israel-Iran conflict, deploying its aircraft carrier USS Nimitz toward the Persian Gulf. The carrier’s Vietnam port call was abruptly cancelled due to “emergent operational requirements,” sparking speculation of heightened American military readiness. While the U.S. denies involvement in Israel’s June 13 strikes, Trump admitted American-supplied systems were key. Iran has accused the U.S. of enabling Israeli attacks and warned that strikes on U.S. bases would be considered an act of war. #USNavy #USSNimitz #IsraelIranConflict #BreakingNews #MiddleEastTensions #PersianGulf #RedSea #USMilitary #Trump #USBases #IranNuclear #IsraelStrikes #IranAccusesUS #AircraftCarrier #USDeployments #Geopolitics #USIranTensions #WarFooting #MarineTraffic #USSupportToIsrael #MilitaryEscalation #EmergencyDeployment #DanangVisitCancelled #AbbasAraghchi #GlobalCrisis #MilitaryPosture #USIsraelAlliance #IranWarWarning #NavalPower #USStrikeGroup Also Read Israeli Missile Hit Iran's TV Studio During Live Bulletin; Video Goes Viral :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-missile-hit-irans-tv-studio-during-live-bulletin-video-goes-viral-4183489.html?ref=DMDesc G7 Backs Israel, Says Tel Aviv Has Right To Self-defence; No Nukes To Iran :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/g7-backs-israel-says-tel-aviv-has-right-to-self-defence-no-nukes-to-iran-4183393.html?ref=DMDesc Khawaja Asif: Pakistan Made ‘No Such Commitment’ To Iran On Israel Nuclear Strike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/khawaja-asif-pakistan-made-no-such-commitment-to-iran-on-israel-nuclear-strike-4183025.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.124~
