⚡Japan and the United States are planning to develop interceptors to shoot down hypersonic missiles by the 2030s under a contract signed by the two countries on Wednesday. The plan, which will reportedly cost more than $3 billion, was first announced in August when the nations’ leaders met at a summit with South Korea in Camp David outside Washington. “In recent years, around Japan, missile-related technologies such as hypersonic weapons have improved dramatically,” the defence ministry said in a statement about the agreement to jointly develop the so-called Glide Phase Interceptor (GPI). “Strengthening interception capabilities against them is an urgent issue.” The Japanese government has already included 75 billion yen ($480 million) in its 2024 budget for development of the interceptors. Hypersonic missiles fly at more than five times the speed of sound and have irregular trajectories, making them difficult to intercept. The 75 billion yen is part of a record defence budget of 7.95 trillion yen approved last year, as tensions rise with China and North Korea.

⚡The US has warned of potential sanctions for any country considering business deals with Iran, hours after India signed a 10-year contract to operate a port with Tehran. India had entered an agreement to develop the strategically important Chabahar port, close to Iran's border with Pakistan, in 2016. On Monday, it signed a long-term deal with Iran to develop it further. India's shipping minister called it a "historic moment in India-Iran ties". But the move may not go down well with the US, which has imposed more than 600 sanctions on Iranian-related entities over the past three years. In a press briefing on Tuesday, the country's State Department Deputy Spokesperson Vedant Patel said, when asked about the deal, that the US sanctions on Iran are still in place and that Washington would continue to enforce them. "Any entity, anyone considering business deals with Iran - they need to be aware of the potential risks that they are opening themselves up to and the potential risk of sanctions," he said.
