US Accuses China of Secret Nuclear Tests; Bondi Testifies

The United States has accused China of conducting secret nuclear tests, while also preparing for a meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former President Trump, and Attorney General Pam Bondi is scheduled to testify before the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, according to multiple reports. The U.S. claims China may be developing new nuclear warheads for its hypersonic weapons, according to NPR.

The meeting between Netanyahu and Trump is scheduled for Wednesday and comes at a critical moment for negotiations between the U.S. and Iran, according to NPR. The details of the meeting have not been released.

Attorney General Pam Bondi is set to testify Wednesday on Capitol Hill, where she is expected to face questions about the Justice Department's targeting of President Trump's political foes and its handling of the Epstein files, according to NPR. Bondi's appearance before the House Judiciary Committee comes one year into her tenure atop the Justice Department, a tumultuous period marked by a striking departure from the traditions and norms that have guided the department for decades, according to NPR.

The U.S. claim regarding China's nuclear tests was made late last week, according to NPR. The U.S. has not released any specific evidence to support its claims.
