Defense News , Indonesia :-  Around 70 Rohingya people are believed to have died or disappeared after the boat they were on overturned near Indonesia's Aceh province. The UN refugee agency, UNHCR, said on Friday that 75 people were saved.The UNHCR and the International Organization for Migration said in a statement that if the number of deaths is confirmed, it would be the biggest loss of life this year.Six migrants were rescued by fishermen on Wednesday, which raised concerns. Indonesia's rescue team rushed from Banda Aceh city on Wednesday evening to help, but they faced difficulties finding the boat in the rough waters.Finally, on Thursday around noon, the team found the boat and survivors.The boat was heading east when it started leaking, and strong currents pushed it towards the west of Aceh, according to Amiruddin, a local fishing leader. The six rescued people said others were still trying to survive on the overturned boat.Babar Baloch, a UNHCR Asia spokesperson, told Reuters on Friday that there were 151 people on the boat. Around 75 were saved by local authorities, but the rest are feared dead or missing.Faisal Rahman, UNHCR's protection associate in Aceh, said the surviving Rohingya were in good condition and were being housed in a Red Cross building in West Aceh.Rohingyas have been leaving Myanmar for years due to mistreatment, lack of citizenship, and being seen as outsiders. According to UNHCR, over 2,300 Rohingya arrived in Indonesia last year, more than in the previous four years combined.In January, UNHCR reported that at least 569 Rohingya died or went missing while trying to flee Myanmar or Bangladesh in 2023, the highest toll since 2014.

Defense News ,Russia :-   In a recent TV report in Russia, something surprising was shown about how they're protecting their submarines. They spotted a Russian Delta-IV class nuclear ballistic missile submarine, the Tula, with a strange addition – a cage-like structure around its control tower. People who know about these things think it's a new way to protect against drone attacks, something that hasn't been done before on a ship.They call it the "cope cage," a name taken from how it's used on land vehicles to protect them. It's made to reduce the damage from attacks coming from above. This change shows that Russia is worried about the drones used by Ukraine. Those drones have been really good at finding and damaging Russian military stuff.Some experts aren't sure if this cage will work well underwater. They're not convinced it can stop attacks from other submarines. But others think it might help against smaller drones that people can buy or modify to carry weapons.This change to the submarine shows how warfare is always changing. It proves that even things underwater can be in danger from things flying in the sky. Whether this cage becomes a normal thing on Russian submarines or if it's just a one-time fix will depend on if it actually works when they need it.

Defense News ,South Korea :-   South Korea is getting ready to use a powerful new missile they built themselves. It's called the Korean Tactical Surface to Surface Missile-I, or KTSSM-I. This missile is designed to take out North Korean artillery that's hiding in caves and tunnels.The missile was made by Hanwha Corporation and the Agency for Defense Development. They worked on it from 2014 to 2017. Then, they started making lots of them in 2020 and started using them in 2022.Here are some key things about the missile:It's big, at 400 millimeters.It can fly up to 180 kilometers (that's about 112 miles).The warhead can dig into the ground several meters.You can only launch it from fixed platforms.But that's not all! They're already working on an even better version called KTSSM-II. This one will be even more powerful, with a range of 290 kilometers (180 miles). Plus, it'll be able to dig even deeper into the ground.They're spending a lot of money on it, about 290 billion South Korean won (that's $218 million). They plan to finish making it by 2027, with the first test happening in January.One big improvement with KTSSM-II is that it can be carried on a ground vehicle. This will make it easier to move around and use wherever it's needed.

Defense News ,Russia Ukraine War :-  A big attack on Ukraine's energy was launched by Russia on Friday. They hit one of the two power lines supplying power to Europe's biggest nuclear power plant in southeast Ukraine.German Galushchenko, the Energy Minister, said on Facebook that this attack is the biggest on Ukraine's energy industry lately. He added that shelling destroyed one of the power lines feeding the Zaporizhzhia power plant.This power plant is the biggest nuclear energy site in Europe. Even though Russian troops took control of it at the start of the war, it still gets power from Ukrainian lines.Energoatom, Ukraine's atomic energy operator, said this situation is really dangerous. If the last power line gets cut, the plant will almost have another blackout. That's very risky for the safe operation of the plant.During the war, the Zaporizhzhia power plant has had many blackouts. It had to rely on emergency diesel generators and safety systems."If these systems fail, there's a risk of a nuclear and radiation accident," said Energoatom.According to the governor of Zaporizhzhia, 12 Russian missiles hit the area early Friday. They destroyed some houses and hurt some people."Ivan Fedorov wrote on Telegram that seven houses were destroyed and 35 were damaged," he said, mentioning the injuries.In the city of Mariupol, which has been under Russian control since 2022, a Russian missile hit a trolley at the Dnipro hydroelectric station. Civilians were killed.Oleksandr Symchyshyn, the mayor of Khmelnytskyi, said it was a terrible morning. Infrastructure and homes were damaged, and civilians were hurt.Energy facilities in many Ukrainian cities were targeted by Russian missiles, drones, and artillery on Friday. These cities include Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Vinnytsia, Khmelnytskyi, and Kryvyi Rig."The aim isn't just to cause damage, but to try to cause a big failure in the country's energy system again, like last year," said Energy Minister Galushchenko.

Defense News ,U.S :-  The United States Air Force (USAF) is working on something super cool called the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program. This program is all about making new, amazing planes that will take over the skies. It's like a big upgrade from the F-22 Raptor, which is a famous plane used by the Air Force.A Big Family of PlanesThe NGAD isn't just about one single plane. It's like a family of planes! Imagine having a big brother plane with lots of little robot planes as friends. These robot planes will help the big brother plane do its job better. They'll work together like a team, making it easier to fight bad guys.Super Fast EnginesThe main engine in the NGAD plane is going to be super cool. It's called the next-generation adaptive propulsion (NGAP) engine. This engine doesn't just make the plane go fast; it also makes a lot of electricity. This electricity is important for running all the fancy gadgets and tools the NGAD planes will use. Plus, this engine can change how it works depending on what the plane needs, making it super efficient.Top Secret StuffThe NGAD program is all hush-hush. They're not telling us everything about it because it's super special. But we do know that these planes will be really hard to see on radar because they're going to be super sneaky. They'll also have really cool missiles that can shoot really far and really accurately, making them super powerful in fights.The Cost of Being Super High-TechMaking these super cool planes costs a lot of money. Just one NGAD plane will cost a whopping $300 million! And the whole program is going to need $16 billion over the next five years just for research and testing. But the Air Force thinks it's totally worth it because these planes will help keep the skies safe for a long time.

Defense News ,U.S :-  Raytheon, a part of RTX, shared exciting news about its advanced radar system called LTAMDS. This radar has been undergoing tests with the U.S. Army, and it just had another successful test where it showed off its abilities. Military leaders from seven different countries came to see how well the radar works.This was the fourth test where the LTAMDS radar was put to the test. The tests are becoming more complex each time to show how well the radar can handle different situations. In this recent test, a fake cruise missile was launched. It flew really high, really fast, and really far, just like a real missile would. But the LTAMDS radar was able to find it and track it. It then sent information to another system called IBCS, which helped guide a missile to intercept the fake one.Tom Laliberty, who works at Raytheon, said that the LTAMDS radar is better than what we have now and can handle threats from today and in the future. He also mentioned that other countries are keeping a close eye on how well this radar is doing. The radar performed really well in these tests, which shows that it's designed well and can help protect against air and missile attacks.In 2023, the LTAMDS program reached some big milestones. It passed tests where it had to deal with different kinds of threats, like planes and ballistic missiles. It also completed testing to make sure everything works as it should. Throughout all these tests, the radar met its goals and showed that it can do what it's supposed to.Right now, six LTAMDS radars are going through tests to make sure they work perfectly. These tests are happening in different places run by the government and Raytheon. In 2024, more tests will happen to make sure the radar can cover all directions around it. The goal is to have it ready to use by the end of the year.LTAMDS is a new radar system for the U.S. Army. It's special because it can scan all around it, unlike older systems. It uses something called Active Electronically Scanned Array radar, which is really powerful. This radar can spot all sorts of threats, from planes and drones to missiles of all kinds, including really fast ones.Overall, Raytheon's LTAMDS radar is proving to be a big step forward in protecting against air and missile attacks. With its advanced technology and successful tests, it's showing that it's ready to defend against any threat that may come its way.

Defense News ,Germany :-  The German Bundeswehr, which is their national defense force, has chosen a company called Rheinmetall to provide them with a new kind of vehicle. It's called the "Schwerer Waffenträger Infanterie" or Heavy Weapon Carrier for the Infantry. This decision was made after the Budget Committee of the German Bundestag, which is like their government's congress, approved the plan on March 20, 2024. Then, on March 21, 2023, the contract between the Bundeswehr and Rheinmetall was officially signed. This contract means that the German Army will get up to 123 of these vehicles. The whole deal is worth about EUR2.7 billion, which includes not just the vehicles themselves, but also the service and maintenance that will keep them running. They're expected to start delivering these vehicles in 2025.So, what's so special about this new Heavy Weapon Carrier for the Infantry? Well, it's meant to replace another vehicle called the Wiesel tracked vehicle. The main job of this new vehicle is to give direct tactical support to infantry units. It's also a key part of something the German Army is calling their "medium forces". These medium forces are supposed to be able to move quickly over long distances, which helps with both defending Germany itself and working with other countries in defense alliances.The Heavy Weapon Carrier for the Infantry is based on another vehicle called the Boxer Combat Reconnaissance Vehicle (CRV). This vehicle is used by the Australian Defence Force and is also made by Rheinmetall. It's an 8×8 vehicle, which means it has eight wheels and all of them are powered. One of its main features is a special turret called the Lance turret, which can hold two people. The main gun on this turret is made by Rheinmetall, and it's called the MK30-2 ABM automatic cannon. This gun is also used on another German vehicle called the Puma infantry fighting vehicle. The new Heavy Weapon Carrier also has a system for firing guided missiles, which can be used to defend against tanks.The head of Rheinmetall, Armin Papperger, says they're proud to be chosen to make this new vehicle for the German Army. He also says that Rheinmetall is using not just their German factories but also their Australian ones to make sure they can build these vehicles as quickly as possible.For making the vehicles for the German Army, Rheinmetall will be using a special factory called the Military Vehicle Centre of Excellence (MILVEHCOE) in Redbank, Australia. They'll be making these vehicles alongside the Combat Reconnaissance Vehicles that they're already building for the Australian Defence Forces.This project is a big cooperation between Germany and Australia. It started in 2023 when the leaders of both countries agreed to work together on it. They signed an agreement in Berlin, Germany, in July 2023. Before that, in March 2023, representatives from both countries had already signed a document in Canberra, Australia, to show they wanted to work together. This laid the groundwork for the bigger agreement that came later.John Abunassar, who's in charge of making vehicles at Rheinmetall, says that the vehicles they're making for the German Army are very similar to the ones they're making for Australia. He also says that both Germany and Australia trust Rheinmetall to make good vehicles for their armies.Rheinmetall also has a big presence in Australia already. They have over 900 employees there, and they make all sorts of high-tech military equipment at their factory in Redbank. They're also involved in supporting the Australian Defence Force in other ways, like training and managing their equipment. Nathan Poyner, who's in charge of Rheinmetall in Australia, says that this project will help both countries' defense industries grow and work together more closely.The Boxer vehicle, on which the new Heavy Weapon Carrier for the Infantry is based, is already used by several other countries' armed forces. It's known for being very safe for the people inside it and for being able to carry powerful weapons while still being able to move around easily. This makes it good for both peacekeeping missions and for fighting in wars.Rheinmetall is already a big supplier of military vehicles to Australia. They've already delivered over 200 Boxer vehicles as part of a big project called Land 400 Phase 2. They've also given support to the Australian Defence Force's HX fleet, which has thousands of vehicles in it. Plus, they've provided special systems to the Royal Australian Navy and made trucks for the New Zealand Defence Force.So, with this new project, Rheinmetall is building on their already strong relationship with Australia while also helping to strengthen Germany's defense capabilities.

Defense News ,POK :-  In a recent meeting at the United Nations, a political activist from an area called Pakistan-occupied Kashmir spoke out against Pakistan. He said Pakistan is not treating people fairly and isn't keeping the law in the occupied region. Mahmood Kashmiri, who is the President of UK Europe Zone of United Kashmir People’s National Party, shared worries about how people's rights are being ignored in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and Gilgit Baltistan.He explained that the people living there have to follow whatever Pakistan's government, its powerful groups, military, and extreme groups say.Kashmiri said there's no fairness in how rules are followed. Those in power do what they want, even if it's not fair.He said many people who stand up for human rights, those who want independence for Kashmir, journalists, community workers, religious groups who are small in numbers, and media workers are constantly bothered, threatened, and sometimes put in jail for saying what they think or reporting on what's happening.He asked the UN to quickly deal with these wrongdoings. He mentioned that people in these areas are protesting to get basic rights and to be safe.“For the last ten months, many people have been doing peaceful protests. But instead of listening to them, the authorities have been treating them badly. They've been arresting lots of people during these protests and rallies where people just ask for their basic rights,” he said to the United Nations.Kashmiri pointed out that Pakistan doesn’t give enough help to the people of PoK and Gilgit-Baltistan. He said the military has taken control of public places like parks, fields, and high points. He also said that Pakistan uses the natural resources in these areas for itself and not for the people who live there.He asked the UN to send a group to Pakistan, PoK, and Gilgit Baltistan to see for themselves how people’s basic rights are being taken away.Kashmiri asked the UN to act quickly to keep people’s rights safe and to make sure that fairness and responsibility are practiced in these areas.

Defense News ,Myanmar :-  In the northwestern part of Myanmar, rebels have been using a new kind of weapon to take back control of a big piece of land from the government. They say that these weapons, called drones, have been very helpful in their fight.These rebels, known as the Chin National Army (CNA), now control about 70% of Chin state. They have a big fleet of drones, which are small flying machines, used mainly for jobs like taking photos or delivering packages.The CNA got these drones from different places, like China and some Western countries such as the United States. They set up a special department just for operating these drones. Many of the people who operate the drones used to be civilians. They got training for months, including watching tutorials on websites like YouTube.Ram Kulh Cung, who helps lead the CNA, says that their drone operators are mostly young people who are good with technology. Some of them studied engineering, while others just liked playing with drones as a hobby. They also learn a lot from the internet to get better at using drones.The rebels have been successful in their recent attacks. They took control of seven towns in Chin state near the border with India since October 2023. Because of these attacks, around 400 soldiers from the Myanmar army ran away to a place called Mizoram in India.Cung says that drones played a big role in their success. They plan their attacks carefully, and the drones help them gather information and carry out their plans effectively.These drone attacks have started to change the situation for the Myanmar military. Before, the military had an advantage because they had modern fighter jets. But now, using these jets is becoming too expensive for them. They have been doing many airstrikes in areas controlled by the rebels, which led to the deaths of thousands of people. Drones, on the other hand, are much cheaper to use and maintain.The military has also tried using drones, but they haven't been very successful because their operators haven't been trained well enough. The rebels' success with drones has caught the attention of experts. They say that drones are changing the way wars are fought in Myanmar. Although the military still has some advantages, drones have made things harder for them.These drones are helping the rebels in Myanmar fight against the government forces. They have been successful in taking back control of a large part of Chin state. The drones are cheaper and easier to use than fighter jets, which gives the rebels an advantage. The military is also trying to use drones, but they haven't been as successful as the rebels. Overall, drones are changing the way wars are fought in Myanmar.

Defense News ,U.S :-  The US military is being told to keep its soldiers safe from blasts to avoid brain injuries. Experts spoke to a group in charge of military personnel about this.They said even small blasts can hurt soldiers' brains. These blasts can happen in training, drills, or during fights, not just in war.Records from the Pentagon show that from 2000 to 2023, nearly 500,000 US soldiers had a brain injury. Most of these soldiers were from the US Army.Samantha McBirney, a biomedical engineer and expert on the panel, said blasts can also cause other injuries that are hard to see right away. These injuries are called "subconcussive injuries." They can cause problems with memory, thinking, and coordination.Soldiers might also feel angry, get headaches, or have trouble hearing because of blasts from heavy weapons or explosives.Former US Navy SEAL Frank Larkin wants the military to act fast. He said the military should focus on preventing these injuries before they get worse.Larkin knows how important it is firsthand. His son, who was in the military, had a brain injury after serving in combat four times.McBirney agreed with Larkin. She said small blasts will keep being a problem for soldiers as weapons get better and stronger. She thinks the Department of Defense and researchers need to work together to fix this.In simple words, the US military needs to make sure soldiers are safe from blasts.
