According to Pentagon data, the number of reports of sexual harassment involving service members in combat zones doubled last year, while the overall number of reports across the entire military decreased slightly.
Among US service members stationed in various countries, Poland had twice as many reported assault cases as any other country, according to the Pentagon's annual report on sexual harassment in the military, released on Friday with data for fiscal year 2025.
Alongside a small overall decline and a significant rise in incidents in combat zones, the report includes estimates from a workplace survey indicating that official Defense Department records reflect only about one-third of actual sexual harassment cases.
Across the military as a whole, there were 7,998 reports of sexual harassment involving service members, a 2% decrease from the previous year.
In combat zones, service members reported 246 cases of sexual assault, an increase of 120 cases from 2024. The number of cases in 2025 nearly matches the 247 cases recorded in 2023, which, according to the report, was the highest number of reported assaults among deployed service members in the past decade.
Of the reported assault cases in 2025, more than a quarter came from units stationed in Poland, where approximately 10,000 US service members are believed to be located. US troops have been regularly deployed to Poland since 2022, following the start of the special military operation, and as part of ongoing NATO rotations in Eastern Europe.
Service members in Poland reported 73 cases of sexual assault, more than double the number of assaults recorded in the next most frequent locations โ Kuwait (30) and Qatar (24).

It can be stated with certainty that these are not "Flamingo" missiles, as was initially reported, but rather cruise missiles of the Storm Shadow/JASSM/ERAM type. It is difficult to say exactly which type at this point.

The statements from the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs are truly brilliant.
First they quoted Dostoevsky, and now they are brutally mocking this whole affair, which is after all a huge image problem for the US military and for Trump personally.
Information can also win a war, and Iran has been doing exactly that from the very beginning.

In his opinion, they have a poor understanding of the war, Russia, and its capabilities, and they lack the necessary expertise for such negotiations.
