hears from a defence commentator, who agrees with the Polish PM that 'we'll all be at war' if Russia prevails in Ukraine & that Europe 'isn't ready' for it.'
If Ukraine wants to use cluster munitions on its own land to drive the Russians out so be it - a massive clear up of mines and other ordnance will be required once the Russians kicked out -
@NATO
must give Ukraine every thing required at

to prevail ASAP
Former Head of the British Army's Chemical Weapons Unit Hamish De Bretton-Gordon explains how cluster bombs work, adding that there is a "high failure rate"

The West should not hold its breath for a negotiation with Putin - plans to draw the war out as long as possible to break our support - we must not yield despite trauma at home.

Excellent to hear - CR2 has got the Russians really rattled- headline news for a damaged tank and they have lost ‘destroyed’ around 4000! We should get the rest of our CR2 out to Ukraine ASAP

At last!! Well done France - In action by the international community in Aug 13 has reverberated ever since - 100 or so chemical attacks - 100s hospital attacks in Syria and no doubt emboldened Putin to invade Ukraine
Absolutely bonkers - Russian tanks use DU rounds - there is no way DU rounds could be used as a nuclear weapon -
#Putin
continues to press the nuclear button but it hasn’t worked thus far and this should be dismissed for the propaganda & dis-information it is.
Russian President Vladimir Putin comments on the UK supplying depleted uranium ammunition to Kyiv's forces, saying "we will have to react to this".

Last night’s Iranian drone attack illustrates there is not a moment to waste to reinvest in UK defence - also shows what happens when second tier forces come up against first tier

russians attacked Dnipro dam. Zaporizhzia NPP on the edge of blackout. The world cannot no longer turn a blind eye to what is happening. It’s a terror and a catastrophe.
Huge Russian tanks assault fails- very poor drills by barely trained crews I expect but major offensive imminent- we must ensure AFU has the ammunition to keep defeating Russian armour

Britain must take a leading role supporting Ukraine - if not a European war is possible and everything else vexing us at the moment will become irrelevant
Opinion | We are at a seminal moment in the war in Ukraine and the world is too focused on Gaza and not Russia. However dreadful Gaza is, it is not a long-term security threat to the UK, writes Hamish de Bretton-Gordon

if Russians use CW. Seek higher ground - always be aware of the wind direction (chemicals will blow away down wind) - decontaminate ASAP as best you can - Caution! CW usually preceded & followed by high explosive atk
Very honoured to be involved in this brilliant, important and chilling documentary - the Russians are committing war crimes by trying to burn civilians - I salute you

for you brilliant coverage of this illegal war
War crimes. Torture. Terror.
The Kremlin doesn’t want you to know what Russia has done to Ukraine.

Having lost 350,000 dead emptied the jails and 87% of the invasion force gone - where are the Russian soldiers going to come from if not mobilisation?! Do the Russian people actually buy this?
33 years ago today I was fighting in a challenger 1 tank squadron 14/20th Kings Royal Hussars in GW1 - lessons for Ukraine- we had ammunition and air power- this is what we must provide to Ukraine or have to get NATO “boots on the ground”?!

I’m afraid I don’t agree - pressed men & women don’t make good soldiers- there are plenty who want join the ranks but the recruitment process is so long it puts most off - but get them in as volunteers and see how they go IMHO & then consider this proposal
