Award-winning Sitrep brings you discussion and analysis on defence, foreign policy and the stories affecting the British forces, presented by James Hirst.

Amid a swirl of conspiracy theories about the apparent death of Yevgeny Prigozhin, in a plane crash in Russia, at least one fact is clear. The mercenary group which has been doing the Kremlin's dirty work for a decade has lost its founders and top team.

Professor Michael Clarke explains what it means for the war in Ukraine and why the group, branded a threat to the UK by MP's, will not be disappearing.

After three British soldiers were injured by an attack on UN peacekeepers in Cyprus, Forces News reporter Simon Newton tells us about the reality of high tensions in the buffer zone, despite what is often dismissed as a 'sunshine tour'.

And six months after President Zelensky's 'wings for freedom' appeal, he's finally been promised western fighter jets. But they won't be able to make an impact in the war for a very long time – we'll explain why.
