Senior US official warns of security threat amid reports of Russian nuclear capability in space

According to some unidentified officials, Russia is developing a space-based anti-satellite weapon. However, other officials have warned about new intelligence regarding Russian nuclear capabilities that could pose an international threat, which is still under development and has not been deployed yet. Rep. Mike Turner called for the declassification of this information to determine how the U.S. can respond. There are also reports suggesting that Moscow has drawn up plans to launch a nuclear device into space. The exact nature of the threats remains unclear, and officials have urged caution against being overly alarmed while refusing to provide details.
