SIPRI releases report on arms transfers; India the biggest arms importer |Oneindia News*Explainer

There is a very old saying ‘Power flows from the barrel of the gun’.

No war can be won without guns…No guns can be bought without a budget…and no budget can overlook the growing demands for arms that are vital for the security of a nation.

The ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, the ever increasing conflicts between China and other nations in the South China sea, the persistent showboating of North Korea everyday proves the point.

Countries who are dealing with chronic food shortages and other basic issues also choose to splurge on defence equipments.

Cases in points are Pakistan and North Korea.

A few days back, Stockholm based think tank…the SIPRI, which stands for Stockholm International Peace Research Institute…published a new report titled ‘Trends in International Arms Transfers’.

The report measures weapons imports over five-year periods and it has validated these assertions.

In this video, we tell you who buys from whom and who sells to whom.

Based on this report.

Putin’s Beginning of WWIII? U.S Warns 50,000 Russian, North Korean Troops Ready to Invade Ukraine

As tensions escalate in Eastern Europe, U.S. officials have raised alarms about the growing military presence along the Russian-Ukrainian border. The Pentagon has warned that up to 50,000 troops, consisting of Russian forces and North Korean soldiers, are preparing to launch an offensive against Ukraine. According to U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, these troops are being integrated into Russian military units in the Kursk region, located near the border with Ukraine. Austin expressed concerns that these forces could soon be engaged in combat, signalling a dangerous escalation in the ongoing war. The buildup of these foreign troops, along with reports of Russia providing North Korea with oil, anti-aircraft missiles, and economic aid in exchange for military support, has raised fears of a significant intensification of hostilities. As the conflict continues to evolve, both Russia and North Korea have become increasingly intertwined in military strategy, with the possibility of further destabilising the region. Ukraine, still recovering from its initial offensives, remains on high alert as this new threat looms large. #PutinsWWIII #RussianTroops #NorthKoreanTroops #UkraineConflict #USDefense #WorldWar3 #KurskRegion #RussianInvasion #MilitaryEscalation #UkraineWar #PutinWar #NorthKorea #EasternEuropeTensions #RussianAlliance #USResponse ~PR.152~ED.194~HT.336~GR.344~

Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Brutal Sectarian Violence: 37 Dead in Less Than 24 Hours of Violence

In a surge of sectarian violence in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, at least 37 people have been killed and dozens more wounded in less than 24 hours. The clashes, primarily between Sunni and Shia communities, have intensified in recent months, particularly in the mountainous Kurram district, a region known for its long-standing sectarian tensions. The violence escalated after gunmen targeted Shia convoys, killing 43 on Thursday, prompting retaliatory attacks by Shia groups, who set fire to Sunni-dominated areas. Despite efforts to mediate peace, the region remains unstable, with security forces attempting to restore calm amid growing tensions. #PakistanViolence #KhyberPakhtunkhwa #SectarianClashes #ShiaSunniConflict #KurramViolence #SectarianTensions #PakistanNews #BreakingNews #PeaceRestoration #PakistanCrisis #KhyberPakhtunkhwaViolence #ShiaSunniViolence #SectarianWar #PakistanSecurity #PakistaniConflict ~HT.97~GR.124~PR.152~ED.194~
