Iran is set to send its warships to the Gulf of Mexico in a bid to establish itself as a global military power. The audacious move has been announced by the Islamic theocracy's new naval commander, Rear Admiral Hossein Khanzadi.

(once again, just like chernobyl...) Russia denies nuclear accident after radioactive traces found

Russia says a nuclear accident has not occurred on its territory despite "extremely high" traces of a radioactive isotope being found.

Russian fake-news campaign against Canadian troops in Latvia includes propaganda about litter, luxur

The 450 Canadian troops stationed in Latvia face little danger from actual Russian military forces, which remain for now safely ensconced on the other side of the border. But they have been the target of repeated information-warfare salvos in the five months since they arrived in the tiny Baltic country, as fake news designed to discredit NATO forces is routinely disseminated online, say Latvian and Canadian officials.

Navy Tests Hypersonic Weapons That Could Hit Anywhere on Earth in an Hour

The U.S. Navy is testing technology that could deliver a conventional warhead anywhere on Earth in as little as an hour.
