The White House has confirmed that Russia is working on developing weapons to target and destroy satellites, commonly referred to as “anti-satellite capability.”

The White House has confirmed that Russia is creating a weapon to target satellites. This comes after a lawmaker expressed concern about the potential danger to national security. Although White House officials acknowledge that this could violate a treaty prohibiting weapons of mass destruction in space, they do not consider it to be an immediate threat. They advise Americans not to panic while lawmakers privately discuss the matter. This is Anita Powell reporting from Washington.
