⚓ Securing the Euro-Atlantic is essential to NATO’s collective defence. From aircraft carriers and submarines to air, land, cyber and space capabilities, NATO forces must be ready to operate together across multiple domains.

During #NeptuneStrike26-4, 17 NATO Allies are strengthening that coordination, bringing together carrier and expeditionary strike groups from Italy 🇮🇹, Türkiye 🇹🇷 and the United Kingdom 🇬🇧.

🛡️ The activity reinforces NATO readiness, interoperability and the ability to protect vital sea routes that connect and reinforce the Alliance.

4 hours in the queue #laplanduk and I get taken to the post-booking page, before I’ve even booked tickets! Seems your website isn’t working.

@clarkshelp my order says delivered on tracking but hasn’t arrived, your helpline and email go unanswered. Please can you help? This is terrible customer service.

[Charlotte Banks @CharlotteBFBS]

@clarkshelp Hi, my order says "delivered" on tracking, but it hasn't arrived, and nobody is answering your phone helpline. Can you help please?

History being made in so many ways right in front of our eyes. As Supreme Allied Commander of NATO for 4 years, I never considered use of these “war reserve” equipment.

Loving these guys. And proud to see them wearing UK uniforms and carrying UK NLAW missiles. We’ll keep supporting them & last night @BWallaceMP did amazing work encouraging many more countries around Europe to do likewise. 🇬🇧🇺🇦

1. The #BritishMilitary here at #KabulAirport have shown breathtaking levels of toughness, professionalism and - rare in war times I must say - compassion. I've been moved to tears by their actions, diving into dangerous crowds to pull visa-holders into the base....

My message to Veterans of the Afghanistan war.

👉You cannot control what is happening now.
👉What you did - the courage, sacrifice and humanity defined folk like me
👉I will ensure this Country never forgets what you sacrificed on the altar of this Nation’s freedom. ❤️‍🩹
