The study investigates the strategic role of space debris as an instrument in hybrid warfare and anti-access and area-denial (A2\/AD) strategies.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

It aims to analyse the functional transformation of space debris from mere technological waste into a \u201csilent weapon\u201d used for concealment and orbital disruption.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The study also examines the significant gap between advances in military technology and the rigidity of international legal frameworks, with particular emphasis on the geopolitical competition among major powers\u2014the United States, Russia, and China\u2014in the field of space surveillance and tracking.<\/strong><\/h4>\n
