The Defence Secretary says his own party has "hollowed out" the forces while in government, but one of his fellow ministers says that’s "patently untrue".

Sitrep assesses if this is this a civil war in the cabinet over defence spending, and if so why?

The Defence Secretary says Labour shares the blame for hollowing out, we talk to the shadow armed forces minister.

Buying Russian missiles, skirmishes with Greece, and now threatening to keep Sweden out of Nato – we ask if Turkey’s a truly committed ally.

And Sitrep's Simon Newton tells us what life is like onboard a US destroyer patrolling the Mediterranean.
