Russian Jet Tangles with US Reaper Drones in Syria

The US Department of Defence says this video shows a Russian jet ‘harassing’ their drones.

The jet is alleged to have used it afterburner and parachute flares to deliberately disrupt the safe operation of the US drones.

The drones were apparently on an operation against Islamic State in Syria.

There are around 900 US personnel in Syria supporting Kurdish-led forces in their effort to prevent a resurgence of the terrorist group.

The incident comes at a time of heightened tensions between the two countries over the war in Ukraine.

Starmer channels Blair & Miliband to launch election pledges

Sir Keir Starmer has unveiled a pledge card with six "first steps" the Labour Party would take if it were to form a government after the next general election. The steps include measures to invest in the NHS, education and policing, to set up a new national energy company and an elite border force, and to promote economic stability. The move, unveiled during a campaign speech in Essex, is reminiscent of Tony Blair’s five pledges ahead of Labour’s landslide victory in 1997, and less favourably of Ed Miliband’s promises carved into stone in 2015.
