Description
Britain will send 20,000 armed forces personnel to one of NATO's largest exercises since the Cold War, Defence Secretary Grant Shapps announces in a speech at Lancaster House, warning of increasing threats to the Western-led alliance. Shapps says the deployment is aimed at "providing reassurance" over the "menace" posed by Russian President Vladimir Putin following his invasion of Ukraine. Speaking on the UK-US strikes against the Iran-backed Huthis in Yemen last week, Shapps says the strikes were intended "as a single action". IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
