Rising Global Tensions
Amid conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, fears of World War III are growing. Russia has warned the U.S. that support for Ukraine marks “direct involvement” and “continues to provoke tension,” said Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.
U.S. as a Target
A Russian state TV segment listed seven possible U.S. nuclear targets, including the Pentagon, Camp David, and key military communication sites. Though some sites are decommissioned, they may symbolize broader threats.
Middle East Escalation
Iran and Israel have exchanged missile strikes. Iran fired hypersonic missiles in response to Israeli attacks. Russia criticized the strikes, saying: “Nuclear facilities are being struck… Where is the entire world community?”
Cold War Warnings
With U.S.-Russia ties deteriorating, experts warn of a new Cold War. Russia, while avoiding direct action in the Middle East, supports Iran and criticizes U.S. policies, sharpening global divisions.
