NEW: The Military Working Dog (MWD) Operational Capability Unit has been deployed to RAF Akrotiri to bolster security at the base.

The MWD unit is the latest deployment of assets to the region, following the arrival of six F-35B Lightning in early Feb ⬇️

It is with great sadness that we confirm the death of Lance Corporal James Freeman, who died on 31 May following a tragic accident during routine military training activity whilst deployed on Operation SHADER, Iraq.

Robert Pattinson on promoting films back-to-back:

“I literally completely forgot which movie I’m even promoting. And it doesn’t really make any difference because I’m so bad at talking about any of them anyway.”

Nahh, that sounds wrong

The perilous moment of choosing music on an Instagram post and story as if it is a life-and-death decision, and thinking people will judge my music taste, mood and “coolness” because of it

[Deborah Haynes @haynesdeborah]

Exactly one year since the UK published with great fanfare a sweeping review of defence and a pledge to rearm, many defence companies are preparing for financial ruin rather than preparing for war as they await the delayed defence investment plan… ⬇️

James Milner retiring means 2026-27 will be the first English top-flight season since 1956-57 that will not feature a single player who played under Sir Bobby Robson.

NEW: British officials reportedly fear Ireland has become a potential "back door" for Russian intelligence due to its high approval rate for Russian visas and its shared travel area with the UK. The concerns come as Ireland prepares to assume the EU Presidency in July.

[Tom English @TEnglishSport]

Forty-five minutes against 10-man Curacao and you’re parachuted into the World Cup squad ahead of a guy described as a generational talent who’s now playing Serie A. Must have had a brilliant training week. If Fletcher is this good then why wasn’t he in squads before?

[Dominic Hauschild @domhauschild]

💥 New interview with @JohnHealey_MP the defence secretary in today's Sunday Times 💥

Tells me:
- UK is "100%" ready if Russia attacks us
- He's frustrated with DIP delays: "I would have wanted it published sooner"
- Britain is raising our "warfighting readiness" over Russian threat
- New AUKUS tech includes sensors based on sonobuoy design and interoperable weapons

Grant Hanley is the Grant Gilchrist of the Scotland football team

Solid and dependable without being world class, with a pinch of longevity thrown in

[Dominic Hauschild @domhauschild]

John Healey, Pete Hegseth and Richard Marles here in Singapore, launching the second phase of the AUKUS relationship.

It will include advanced, uncrewed, undersea vehicles. The UUVs will be equipped with payloads including weaponry and high tech sensors will be deployed around the world, including in the Indo Pacific, the High North and the Atlantic.

@T2Rugby Melrose already has a 7s competition

It’s been going on since 1883

It doesn’t need the SVNS competition to come there, when they could use Scotstoun or the Hive Stadium in Edinburgh

Bored of waiting for the DIP? Try the Choose-Your-Own-DIP-Adventure simulator. An entertaining and hopefully not too libellous way to put Opus 4.8 through its paces.

The defence investment plan will not be published next week, it is understood, which means there is a very narrow window for it to get out. Healey and others want it out before allied defence ministers meet at Nato on 18 June (same day as the Makerfield by-election)
