Global military spending hit a record high of $2.443 billion in 2023 after a 7% increase, as per a report.

Military expenditure rose consistently over nine years in all regions due to worsening peace and security globally.

Countries like Ukraine, Russia, Poland, Germany, and the UK saw significant spikes in their military spending.

Israel notably increased its military spending significantly due to the conflict in the Middle East, particularly a major offensive in Gaza in 2023.

Quick Glance: Ukrainian President Thanks US for Weapon Aid

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy thanked U.S. political leaders for approving an aid package for Ukraine, providing the country with a chance at "victory" in its defense against Russia.

The House passed a bill granting Ukraine $60.8 billion in aid, with Zelenskyy urging swift Senate approval to ensure rapid assistance to frontline soldiers.

Zelenskyy emphasized the critical need for long-range weapons and air defense systems to stabilize the situation and regain the initiative in Ukraine.

He addressed rumors of a territorial deal with Russia, emphasizing the importance of a strategy based on concrete democratic measures to end the war.

Quick Glance: Senate prepares for final passage of Ukraine-Israel aid bill

The House-passed supplemental funding package to provide long-awaited aid to Ukraine, Israel, and other allies was advanced by the Senate on Tuesday to prepare the legislation for final passage.

Senators voted 80-19 to proceed with the $95 billion foreign aid package, encompassing funds for humanitarian aid, national security items, and potentially a TikTok ban.

Active discussions continue among senators to reach an agreement on amendments for a swift final vote on the four-bill package, with talks hitting a snag over the weekend.

It is widely anticipated that regardless of the outcome of such negotiations, the legislation will receive support from nearly all Democrats and about half of the Republican conference, surpassing the 60 votes needed for approval.

Chinese hackers are constantly targeting critical infrastructure in the U.S., FBI Director says

qz.com/china-hacking-fbi-christopher-wray-panic-volt-typhoon-1851425289

Quick Glance: Cyber Threats from China Targeting US Critical Infrastructure

According to FBI Director Christopher Wray, Chinese hackers are continuously seeking to infiltrate the computer systems of U.S. water treatment facilities and energy grids to induce panic.

Wray claimed that the People’s Republic of China (PRC) has allocated significant resources to an offensive cyber program that surpasses those of all other major nations combined.

Wray primarily focused on the China threat concerning critical infrastructure but was also questioned about TikTok, the social media platform facing potential banning in the U.S. if ByteDance does not comply.

The FBI director emphasizes that the threat is not merely a long-term concern anymore but could materialize by 2027, as indicated by a recent assessment from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence suggesting a potential Chinese invasion of Taiwan before the decade ends.
