The UK increases its Middle East military presence | Sitrep podcast

Award-winning Sitrep brings you discussion and analysis on defence, foreign policy and the stories affecting the British forces, presented by Kate Gerbeau, with expert analysis from Professor Michael Clarke. HMS Diamond has been sent to the Red Sea after missile and drone attacks against British owned cargo vessels, and RAF spy-planes have been deployed to search for hostages held in Gaza. Professor Michael Clarke and former Royal Navy commander Tom Sharpe explain what these assets and personnel can achieve, the limitations & risks of their missions, and the possibility of more UK military capability joining them. Sitrep also looks at another big deployment much closer to home, a new Royal Navy task group trying to protect critical undersea power and data cables, alongside European allies. And does military history repeat itself, or just rhyme? Kate talks to military historian Lucy Betteridge-Dyson, General Sir Mike Jackson and General Lord Richards about how the study of past conflicts shapes the wars of today. #forcesnews #sitrep #podcast #warships #middleeast #military #navy 00:00 - On this Sitrep episode 01:14 - More British forces in Middle East 13:21 - Navy task force to protect cables 20:34 - How history shapes modern wars Subscribe to Forces News: http://bit.ly/1OraazC Check out our website: http://forces.net Facebook:   / forcestv   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/forcesnews/...
