London ready to send 600 of its troops to Ukraine to contain Russian aggression – media
KYIV. Nov 15 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Great Britain may, if necessary, as soon as possible send 600 of its troops to Ukraine due to fears of an escalation from the Russian Federation, The Daily Mirror has said.
"A task force of up to 600 UK troops is ready to deploy in Ukraine amid fears Russia is poised to invade its neighbor," the message reads.
"The high readiness element of the brigade was told it may need to deploy at very short notice. Between 400 and 600 troops are ready. Their equipment is packed and they are ready to fly to Ukraine and either land or parachute in," a source in the British army told journalists.
Senior British defense sources said hundreds of paratroopers supported by artillery units could drop into the region within 36 hours of the green light, it says.
As reported, the United States warned the Russian authorities about the potential negative consequences for unusual military activity near Ukraine.
