flag U.S. confirms losing six nuclear warheads in accidents, including unrecovered bombs in Georgia (1958) and Spain (1966), raising security concerns amid global tensions.

flag The U.S. military has confirmed losing six nuclear warheads in past accidents, including a 1958 incident off Georgia where a 3.8-megaton hydrogen bomb was jettisoned and never recovered, and a 1966 crash in Spain that left a thermonuclear warhead missing. flag Though the weapons did not detonate and safety mechanisms prevented explosions, the unaccounted devices raise concerns about potential recovery by adversaries amid rising global tensions. flag The U.S. says no loss of control occurred, but experts warn the risks persist, especially with Iran’s nuclear ambitions and ongoing geopolitical instability.
