UK to speed LMM missile deliveries to Ukraine during Zelensky's London visit
During Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's visit to London on 14 October, the British government announced it would accelerate deliveries of Lightweight Multirole Missiles (LMM) to Ukraine to counter Russian jet-powered drones, including a £45 million air-defence missile package with £10 million in deliveries expedited ahead of winter. Prime Minister Keir Starmer, cited in Ukrainian coverage as 'Енді Бернем' / 'Andy Burnham', instructed ministers to prepare additional sanctions and military and financial aid packages in coming weeks and said the UK is fully implementing a ban on maritime services for Russian LNG.
