This is the DEFCON Warning System. Alert status for 9 P.M. UTC, Monday, November 7th, 2022. Condition code is Blue. DEFCON 4.
There are currently no imminent nuclear threats at this time, however there are events occurring in the world theatre which require closer monitoring.
As winter sets in around the Ukraine theatre, both sides are making preparations to hunker down, and not much movement is expected over the next few months, though for now Ukraine continues to make gains, but not as rapidly as had been.
Nuclear threats from Russia have died down.
At this time, The DEFCON Warning System assess the situation as improving on the nuclear threat front and has lowered the alert level. We will continue to reassess as the situation evolves. The public is cautioned that as the war progresses and the weather begins to warm again next year, the alert level is likely to change again. Do not lower your guard. Use this time to continue to make preparations in the event of a nuclear attack.
The United States has acknowledged that U.S. military personnel are now on the ground in Ukraine. The U.S. says they are there for weapons inspection “and wherever the security conditions allow.” The United States reports that Russian military officials have discussed what scenarios in which to use nuclear weapons in the Ukraine war. Meanwhile, despite Russian claims, IAEA inspectors find no evidence of undeclared nuclear activities and materials at Ukraine sites.
The United States says it will never recognize North Korea as a nuclear state. North Korea has launched a missile south of maritime border of South Korea. It should be noted that North Korea does not recognize the maritime border. North Korea has also launched an unusual number of missiles in the region, but there is no sign that this is for an impending attack. Analysists still believe North Korea is prepping for a nuclear test.
China’s leader has moved more toward security for the country, indicating that China will continue to strengthen its military and project its power.
The DEFCON Warning System is a private intelligence organization which has monitored and assessed nuclear threats by national entities since 1984. It is not affiliated with any government agency and does not represent the alert status of any military branch. The public should make their own evaluations and not rely on the DEFCON Warning System for any strategic planning. At all times, citizens are urged to learn what steps to take in the event of a nuclear attack. If this had been an actual attack, the DEFCON Warning System will give radiation readings for areas that are reported to it. Your readings will vary. Official news sources will have radiation readings for your area.
