120 years on from the Entente Cordiale, the Defence partnership between the UK and France is stronger than ever. 🇬🇧 🇫🇷 UK and French Defence Chiefs met today in Paris to discuss how our militaries will continue to work shoulder-to-shoulder to uphold security around the world. 🌍
Today I briefed more than 50 nations on the UK’s largest ever military donation package which includes funding and gifting. The UK's backing for Ukraine is absolute because we understand what would happen if Putin were to win. Simply put, he wouldn't stop there. We will lead…
The APAC24 is the first fully uncrewed boat controlled from a @RoyalNavy ship ⚓🇬🇧 Defence Minister @jcartlidgemp visited @HMNBPortsmouth, where he spoke with personnel and discussed the positive progress being made to uncrewed systems.

The allegations of Russian malign activity in the UK are deeply concerning. Anyone found guilty of assisting a foreign intelligence service will be held to account. The UK will never be deterred from backing Ukraine by Russia’s futile attempts to shake our resolve.

During a recent routine Operation Shader patrol, 2 @RoyalAirForce Typhoons identified rockets being launched in Iraq against coalition forces. To defend against this attack, our aircraft successfully used a Paveway IV precision-guided bomb to destroy the rocket launcher system.
The crew of @hmsdiamond are continuing to save innocent lives in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. Yesterday Diamond became the first Royal Navy ship to shoot down a missile since 1991 - when they destroyed a Houthi missile targeting merchant vessels.
On this day in 1915, more than 70,000 allied troops landed at Gallipoli. 20,000 of them were Australian and New Zealander soldiers. As we mark #AnzacDay, we show gratitude for their sacrifice and the role they played in the First World War. We will remember them.
Today’s #AnzacDay commemorations continued with a service at the Cenotaph. Wreaths were laid in tribute by the Defence Minister Andrew Murrison and Chief of the Air Staff Air Chief Marshal Sir Richard Knighton. #WeWillRememberThem
Today, the UK conducted its 9th airdrop of humanitarian aid for Gaza. The @RoyalAirForce delivered more than 11 tonnes of life-saving supplies. We’re continuing to step up deliveries of aid by land and air to the people of Gaza who are in need of our support.
Today’s #AnzacDay commemorations began with a Dawn Service at Hyde Park Corner. The Duke of Edinburgh and Major General Richard Clements laid wreaths in tribute to all the Australian and New Zealander soldiers who lost their lives in combat. #WeWillRememberThem
When I set out my priorities as Defence Secretary I declared the era of the peace dividend over. Since then @RishiSunak and I have kept that promise with new funding that rises to the moment - empowering our Armed Forces to deter our enemies, lead our allies & defend our nation.
