Britain helps Ukraine hunt for Russian spies eyeing Western military aid

Asked how the US-provided Himars multiple-launch rocket systems have so precisely targeted Russian fuel and ammunition depots, as well as battlefield headquarters in eastern Ukraine, Gen Skibitsky said “in this case in particular, we use real-time information”.

US officials are not providing direct targeting information, which would potentially undermine their case for not being direct participants in the war, Gen Skibitsky said.

However, he suggested there was a level of consultation between intelligence officials of both countries prior to launching missiles that would allow Washington to stop any potential attacks if they were unhappy with the intended target.

“I can’t tell you whether [we are directly tasking] British and American satellites, but we have very good satellite imagery,” he told The Telegraph.

Time to start hitting targets in Russia since they have not qualms about hitting targets in Ukraine.

Just do what Reagan did with the Russians in Angola, Central America, Afghanistan. Up the ante. Stinger missiles got them out.

Does this mean we supplied the coordinates for the POW camp hit by a HIMARS missile?
