Global nuclear warheads estimated at 13,130 amid reignited tensions
The number of nuclear warheads possessed across the globe was estimated at 13,130 as of June, down 280 from the same month a year earlier, according to a research center at Nagasaki University, due to efforts to reduce and modernize arsenals amid reignited tensions among major nuclear powers.

The total figure includes those stored at nonmilitary facilities for dismantlement.
