Iran has long been a country of interest given its location at the intersection between Central Asia, South Asia, and the Middle East, alongside its geopolitical and geoeconomic importance. In recent years, Iran’s nuclear programme has advanced at an alarming rate with limited transparency and has become a focus for tensions and concern among signatories to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) and countries in the region. Using Janes assured foundational intelligence and interconnected data and analysis, which can be integrated into your own system, you can gain a situational awareness of Iran, its nuclear programme, as well as the country’s intent and progress in potentially achieving a viable nuclear weapons capability.

Following the news last week of our Silver Status award in the UK’s Defence Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS) we wanted to share a real-life story of one of our colleagues who has made the move from the military to a civilian career at Janes. Leaving the military at any stage represents an enormous life change and we believe that hearing from those who have navigated this transition is really important in supporting the veteran community. We recently sat down with Andrew Galer (Head of Land Platforms and Weapons), who shared his own inspiring career transition story and the invaluable skills he brings to Janes. His experience underscores the importance of adaptability, leadership, and a mission-focused mindset qualities we really value here at Janes. Watch Andrew’s story below to learn more and if you’re a veteran thinking about what’s next, please check out our careers site https://hubs.la/Q02HM0YN0 and do get in touch.

In case you missed it, in this podcast James Rands, senior Balkans and military capabilities analyst at Janes, joins Harry Kemsley and Sean Corbett to provide a deeper understanding of the High North, Arctic region. With climate change likely to expose a northern sea route in the next decade or so and the potential abundance of natural resources, many countries will want to stake claim on this previously impenetrable region. Rands highlights the military capabilities required to operate in this challenging environment. They also discuss the important role open-source intelligence plays in providing early-warning indicators of activity and any escalation in tensions in what is likely to become a key global strategic area. With deep subject matter expertise, global experience, and the latest technology, Janes OSINT analysts act as a trusted extension of your team to expand your focus across developing and fast-moving situations.

The Kenyan-led MSSM deployed to Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince on 25 June. In this latest instalment of Janes recurring analysis focusing on gang activity in Haiti’s Ouest department, Janes Americas analyst Lewis Galvin analyses the mission's short-term prospects and gang preparations throughout June. Key points covered: • Janes recorded a significant reduction in gang raids and attacks on infrastructure in June compared with May • The reduction in violence likely indicated that gangs had prioritised consolidating control of their established territories rather than expending resources on territorial expansion ahead of the 25 June Multinational Security Support Mission (MSSM) deployment • The MSSM is unlikely to have a significant impact immediately due to the limited number of personnel being deployed Janes provides insight and analysis for 197 countries in a familiar PMESII (political, military, economics, social demographics, information, and infrastructure) framework to understand global threats and capabilities and changes in state stability. So no matter where your attention needs to be, you can trust our accessible, verified OSINT to enrich your intelligence and provide a solid ground for your analysis.

An event in isolation is only part of what happened ... In a major enhancement to the Janes events dataset, global military events worldwide have been verified and interconnected with multiple foundational data points, including systems and weapons, organisations, inventories, orders of battle, and installations. Using Janes military events data, our experts uncovered that between November 2023 and February 2024, Japanese surveillance patrols detected 19 Chinese and seven Russian vessels. In the same period, F-15s were scrambled 21 times in response to airspace violations. The interconnections between the events data and Janes foundational OSINT enabled the quick identification of the vessels’ capabilities and roles and aircraft involved. Further links to Janes orders of battle, to locate home bases, provided insight into whether they were likely to have been forward-deployed. Patterns and trends in the tempo and locations of the activity and involvement of different vessels and aircraft over time could also be tracked. Janes unique ability to interconnect key datasets enables analysts to quickly derive the insights that support decision-making. Janes is the only OSINT provider that delivers an in-depth understanding of who is involved, why it is happening, and what the likely outcomes might be, supporting analysts as they look for indicators and warnings and carry out pattern-of-life analysis.
