実戦配備済みの核、世界で100発増 新たにインドも 平和研

The number of nuclear warheads in active deployment worldwide has increased by approximately 100, with India being a new addition to this category. This rise reflects a concerning trend in nuclear proliferation and readiness. Several nuclear-armed states are expanding or modernizing their arsenals, indicating a potential shift in global security dynamics. The report highlights that while the total number of nuclear weapons may have decreased slightly from its peak, the number of deployed warheads is on the rise.

This increase in deployed nuclear weapons matters because it raises global tensions and increases the risk of their use, potentially destabilizing international peace and security.
