The Brazilian Army Announced That, Starting in 2025, Women Will Be Able to Enlist in the Military Service. This Historic Decision Was Made by the Ministry of Defense, with Support from the Military Commanders.

So far, women could only join the Brazilian Army through preparatory schools or public competitions, working in areas such as health, logistics and maintenance of weapons and vehicles. With the new decision, they will be able to enlist directly, just like men.

The inclusion of women in the Armed Forces began in the 1980s, but always in a limited way. Now, with female enlistment, a gradual increase in the female contingent is expected. The Minister of Defense, José Múcio, stated that the initial expectation is for 20% of the total vacancies to be reserved for women. However, female enlistment will be voluntary, not mandatory, as it is for men.

A Notable Example Is Maria Quitéria de Jesus, Who Fought in the Brazilian Army During the War of Independence, Disguised as a Man

Her skills and discipline in battle made her a national heroine. Another example is the women who volunteered in World War II, serving as nurses and caring for Brazilian soldiers on the battlefields in Italy.

With the New Decision, Young Women Who Dream of Joining the Military Will Have the Opportunity to Experience This Through Enlistment

However, the issue of mandatory female enlistment is still controversial. Some argue that, in the name of equality, women should also be required to enlist, while others believe that enlistment should remain voluntary.

Starting in 2025, Brazilian women will have the chance to be part of the Brazilian Army, contributing to the security and sovereignty of the country. This historic decision marks an important advance in inclusion and gender equality in the Armed Forces.

While in Brazil a 10-story building takes 2 years to complete, in China a company stacks pre-fabricated modules and raises the entire building in just 28 hours and 45 minutes.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

Peru built a tunnel at an altitude of 4,738 meters cutting through the Andes Mountains, and the road leading to it reaches 4,818 meters, making it the highest paved road in the entire world.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows in Argentine Patagonia the exact point where a colossal glacier, a turquoise-blue lake, and a greenish arm of water meet, creating one of the rarest and most impressive landscapes in the region.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

The Brazilian president sent a direct message to Trump, Putin, Xi Jinping, and Macron, calling them all warlords and demanding that they fulfill their obligation to ensure peace.

While Mazda succeeded with the rotary engine, China attempted to apply it in trucks, but the low torque, high consumption, and wear led to the failure of the TJ140 project.

At the same time that a traditional farmer plants lettuce in the field and waits up to 90 days for the harvest, a single Japanese factory produces 30,000 heads of lettuce per day, without soil, without pesticides, and not dependent on the season, with automated harvesting that surprises the world.

Petrobras made two discoveries in the pre-salt of the Campos Basin in less than 30 days: “excellent quality” oil in Marlim Sul in March and hydrocarbons at 2,984 meters in April.

Italians are taking the classic Fiat Panda out of the garage, removing the gasoline engine and installing an electric system that runs 110 km for just 3 euros of recharge, and it even has the option to install a solar panel on the roof that adds 15 km of range per day.

For the first time in history, an allied nuclear submarine launched and recovered an American drone underwater without surfacing — and the test changes underwater warfare forever.

The U.S. Air Force tests semi-autonomous flight of the Anduril combat drone without the need for direct control by a pilot.

Inspired by the manta ray, the most secret underwater drone of the USA can hibernate on its own at the bottom of the ocean for months, anchored to the seabed, and no one knows where it is…

A drone that flies, dives to 40 meters, resurfaces next to the target, and attacks in swarms transforms Belgium into a pioneer of a hybrid weapon that crosses sky and ocean undetected.

With about 100 meters in length, a capacity of over 800 tons, and operation without ports in combat zones, the new ship of the U.S. Marines emerges as a key piece that could redefine warfare in the Pacific and challenge rival powers.
