UK military gaps in High North leave nuclear deterrent exposed, report warns

Original: 'Glaring gaps' in UK's High North military leave Brits and nuclear deterrent vulnerable to Russia

A new warning claims there are 'glaring gaps' in the UK's military presence in the High North, the Arctic region where Russian activity has been increasing. Defence commentators argue that weak British monitoring of the GIUK gap and northern waters leaves both the British public and the UK's nuclear deterrent submarines vulnerable to Russian naval and undersea operations. The warning adds to ongoing debate about Britain's defence spending and Nato's northern flank.

Why now: Growing concern over Russian submarine and Arctic activity is fuelling debate about UK and Nato defence readiness.
