Could China replace the United States atop the target list of transnational jihadist groups like al-Qaeda? A recent statement released by Sheikh Saad bin Atef al Awlaqi, the emir of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, directly threatened China, labeling its government as a “pagan, infidel” enemy whose actions against Uyghur Muslims justify future attacks. The statement marks a clear escalation in al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula’s anti-China rhetoric.
On Feb. 17, the Department of Veterans Affairs published an interim final rule that changes one deceptively simple question at the heart of disability exams. The VA’s answer will drastically lower disability compensation for millions of veterans, many of whom spent the last 20 years fighting two wars and an untold number of low-level conflicts.
Effective immediately, the VA will rate veterans based on how they function with medication and treatment, not based on how the condition actually affects them.
The Bangladesh Army has received a new batch of Chinese Type 15 lightweight battle tanks, otherwise known as the VT-5, which are expected to equip a second segment, after one regiment equipped with 44 of the tanks completed its rearmament in 2025. The vehicles are among a wide range of equipment that has recently been procured from China, with the purchase of SY-400 tactical ballistic missiles having been approved in November, while orders for J-10C and JF-17 Block III fighters are both reportedly under consideration.

SAN DIEGO — The recent U.S. military operations in Latin America that culminated in the capture of Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro underscored the importance of “sequencing” cyber, intelligence, electronic and other weapons assets, according to the Navy’s so-called ‘IBoss.’
“I wish I could tell you more about that — but there’s goodness there that we’re going to unpack as we go forward,” Vice Adm. Mike Vernazza, commander of Naval Information Forces, told DefenseScoop last week.
The Pentagon released a solicitation Tuesday as it continues its quest for new artificial intelligence tools to assist with back-office functions.
While AI capabilities developed for battlefield use often garner headlines, the Defense Department also wants technology to help with more mundane activities. The call for solutions for a Joint Enterprise Task Management System (JETMS) is one of the latest examples.
Today’s tasking processes are fragmented across legacy systems, email and manual trackers, according to officials.
Under 20 pounds. Man-portable. Semi-autonomous. Able to launch and land vertically. These are some of the characteristics the Marine Corps is looking for in a new medium-range tactical (MRT) drone the service could equip its expeditionary forces with.
The Corps currently uses the hand-launched RQ-20B Puma for reconnaissance and surveillance, which is part of a family of drones that is nearly 20 years old.
