Navy boss reveals fears over staffing of UK's nuclear deterrent
Sunday, 18 June 2023 The submarine service – which delivers the UK's nuclear deterrent – is not "awash with people" and work is under way to attract new recruits, the head of the Royal Navy has said.
The HMS Diamond, a UK warship, intercepted a ballistic missile launched by Houthi rebels in Yemen, marking the Royal Navy's first such interception since the Gulf War. Deployed in the Gulf of Aden to protect a commercial vessel, the Type 45 destroyer used advanced Sea Viper missile interceptors. The targeted ship, MV Yorktown, was unharmed. This highlights escalating tensions in the region, with Houthi rebels employing Iranian-origin missiles and drones
