🇲🇽 #Mexico Elects First Female President: What Should We Expect? https://theatlasnews.co/analysis/2024/06/03/mexico-elects-first-female-president-what-should-we-expect/
Mexico has elected frontrunner Claudia Sheinbaum as their first female president, following a campaign period scarred by criminal violence and the highest assassination rate of political candidates in the country’s history. She will take on a legacy of a militarized approach to drug cartels, violent crime, a migration crisis, and disputes with major trading partners, including the United States.
Here’s what you need to know.
In an election where the top two presidential candidates were both women, Mexico was all but guaranteed a female president. It was the biggest election in Mexico’s history, with every seat in Congress up for grabs, the presidency, and more than 19,000 state and local offices. The election was by far the most violent since 2018, with 37 political candidates assassinated, according to Reuters, and more than 300 incidents of violence or threats of kidnapping occurring.

This also marks China’s second successful landing on the far side of the moon, a lunar region that no other country has been able to reach thus far. The first was carried out by the “Chang’e-4” mission in 2019. Via theatlasnews.co @AtlasNewsTelegram

HIMARS Hit #Belgorod: The deputy chairman of the Ukrainian Parliament’s committee on national security, defense, and intelligence confirmed that Ukrainian strikes took place on June 2nd had damaged and destroyed S-300 and S-400 missile launcher systems, which are used by Russia to target both aerial vehicles in an air defense capacity and ground locations in the form of indirect bombardment. He also said United States-sent HIMARS launchers had been utilized to carry out the strikes.
The chairman, Yehor Chernev, said that the launchers had been destroyed in the Belgorod region, around 20 miles inside Russia. This comes only five days after the Biden Administration greenlit the allowance to use U.S. systems operated by Ukrainian forces to strike inside the border region of Russia in Belgorod.
This decision was announced after Russian ground invasion forces reopened a northern offensive from the Belgorod region into the Kharkiv region in the northeast of Ukraine. An extended bombing campaign from multiple Russian missile strikes and directed drone waves carrying explosive payloads has left several dozen Ukrainian civilians killed and wounded, as well as electrical infrastructure partially destroyed in Kharkiv city and the surrounding area in the past few weeks.

🇺🇸 🇬🇺 #UnitedStates to Carry Out Missile Testing on #Guam: https://theatlasnews.co/analysis/2024/06/08/united-states-to-carry-out-missile-testing-on-guam/ @AtlasNewsTelegram
The United States Missile Defense Agency (MDA) will give the population of Guam 30 days for a public consultation regarding a decades-long motion to perform tests of the island’s missile defense systems.
A local news outlet stated residents living near Andersen Air Force Base will have from June 3rd to July 2nd to electronically submit any comments on the matter. Testing will also be carried out on U.S. Navy ships in nearby waters.
“This comes after the Department of Defense Missile Defense Agency notified the administration of a proposed final environmental assessment and proposed finding of no significant impact to conduct up to two flight tests or tracking exercises,” the same local media outlet reported.
The plan is to perform two tests per year of the defense system for the next 10 years, for a total of 20 tests.
The first test, occurring later this year, will include a Standard Missile-3 interceptor fired from Anderson Air Force Base against a medium-range ballistic missile launched from a C-17 around 800 nautical miles east of Guam. Via theatlasnews.co
