    This morning, UK forces boarded a Russian tanker in the English Channel that was secretly helping to bankroll Putin's war in Ukraine. The first operation of its kind led by British forces, and a clear message: there is nowhere to hide.

    History in the making. Royal Marines prepare for the new colours ceremony. “These Colours represent more than tradition; they carry the operational history, sacrifice and spirit of the Royal Marines, from our origins in 1664 through to the modern Commando Force."

    1/2 Our thoughts are with the families, friends, and comrades of Lt Cdr Chris Gayson, Lt Lily-Mae Fisher and PO Owen Green, who died when their helicopter crashed in Devon. Cherished members of the Commando Helicopter Force, all three will never be forgotten.

    2/2 Among them, was Lt Fisher, the first Royal Navy female to earn the Green Beret by completing the All Arms Commando Course, inspiring all who served alongside her. Our condolences are with the families, friends, and loved ones of all affected during this difficult time.
