Britain vulnerable to ballistic missiles, The Times reports

The UK does not have air defenses on the ground to protect critical sites from missile attacks. An article in The Times suggests that the country will face serious security threats in the next 15 years. Threats include the possibility of an attack by Houthis from Yemen, militants from Libya, and Iran's arsenal of 3,000 ballistic missiles. Russia, in turn, has a powerful Oreshnik missile system with a range of up to 3,410 miles. The UK's weak defense is due to a lack of investment in missile defense for many years.

According to senior sources in the UK Ministry of Defence, the country faces a real security threat today. Insufficient spending on air defense and missile defense has led to the country being unprepared to counter ballistic missiles from any corner of the world. British military bases and infrastructure are under threat from various hostile groups.

It is important that the potential threat can come both from missile attacks from various countries and from internal threats to national security. Britain is not ready for military action, since a fifth of the army is not capable of participating in battles. Taking into account the current situation on the world stage, it is necessary to reconsider the security strategy and arm ourselves with effective air defense and missile defense systems to protect key facilities and populated areas from possible missile attacks.

Of course, the existing threat requires immediate action on the part of the British authorities. Increasing spending on missile defense systems and improving military readiness for combat will be key steps in ensuring the country's security. This became known from a report by The Times, which brought up for discussion not only the security problems of Great Britain, but also possible ways to solve them.
