Starmer prepares for attack by Russia: The Telegraph
- The UK government is updating its Cold War-era homeland defence plan to prepare for a potential Russian military attack on British soil.
- This move follows Kremlin threats and rising concerns about the UK's insufficient readiness for modern conflict involving missile and cyber attacks.
- The revised strategy will divide the UK into 12 zones controlled by officials with emergency powers, include safeguarding leaders, and coordinate large-scale defence responses.
- Sir Keir Starmer committed 2.5% of GDP to defence by 2027 while security chiefs warn that state threats increased by 48% and that the UK would be "outgunned" by Russia.
- The plan reflects mounting anxiety in Whitehall and aims to enhance military and civil resilience against significant long-term security, health, and economic impacts.
