Russia loses ‘astronomical’ 70,000 troops in 60 days
“These tactics can yield incremental gains, but they are poorly suited to achieving operationally significant breakthroughs. Larger assaults have proven costly to Russian forces, which cannot afford sustained equipment losses of the kind seen earlier in Avdiivka,” Michael Kofman, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment, said.

One week you’re quietly getting on with life working for the NHS in occupational health, the next you’re rubbing shoulders with world leaders at a Nato summit in Washington as the UK’s (unofficial) “first lady”.

UK hasn’t allowed Ukraine to use Storm Shadow missiles inside Russia, MoD clarifies
On Thursday night Sir Keir told the Nato summit that he had “reaffirmed our unshakeable support for Ukraine’s ultimate victory.” He said the alternative was “unthinkable” as he described Russia using “some of the deadliest weapons in its arsenal on innocent children”, when it struck a children’s cancer hospital in Kyiv earlier this week.

The vigilante drivers battling Britain’s traffic cameras
The cameras are everywhere. Our motorways, our car parks, our quiet suburban streets – automatic number plate recognition, or ANPR, observes Britain’s drivers through a vast network of unblinking eyes, keeping tabs on where and when we’ve travelled.

It has been widely acknowledged in the fashion industry as a middle-class sweet spot – i.e., high enough to make an item seem reassuringly aspirational, but not obscenely so. ...
Is Britain the world’s most self-loathing nation?
Even Britain’s pensioners, a generation you might expect to be more pragmatic, seem to regard our treasures with short shrift – which might explain why two octogenarians launched an attack on a Magna Carta exhibition at the British Library in May. Food British food is so often disparaged by continental Europeans and Americans alike as...
