British troops will be allowed to fire at Russian forces if attacked during multinational mission

Western officials have revealed that British troops deployed as part of a multinational mission to secure future peace in Ukraine will be permitted to fire back at Russian forces if they are attacked. While these troops may return fire in self-defence, officials suggest that any potential threats are more likely to originate from drones rather than direct gunfire. This measure ensures the safety of personnel tasked with maintaining stability within the region during the peacekeeping operation.
