(opens the publisher’s site)UK Defence Secretary Wes Streeting has called for stronger military and civilian readiness, warning adversaries could be able to attack Britain by 2030.
- Streeting, writing in The Telegraph, said Britain's adversaries could possess military and economic capabilities to attack by 2030, leaving just over 1,000 days to prepare.
- The government's "Be Ready" campaign advises households to stock three days of water, non-perishable food, medicines, cash, and emergency equipment.
- Streeting said threats including state-sponsored terrorism, sabotage, and cyber attacks on supply chains and payment systems are no longer distant risks.
- Streeting said the UK's defences have not yet reached the required level and must continue strengthening.
