International Reactions
World leaders have addressed their nations in emergency broadcasts:
-
United States: The President declared a national emergency, urging calm and instructing citizens to follow government safety directives. Military forces are on high alert, and key strategic installations have been reinforced.
-
European Union: Leaders have convened an emergency summit, coordinating defense and humanitarian responses while assessing potential evacuation strategies for affected regions.

China and Russia: Both countries issued statements asserting sovereignty and military readiness, urging other nations to refrain from panic and speculation.
