Britain plans to evacuate its troops from Ukraine

Great Britain is preparing to evacuate its forces from Ukraine in the event of an aggravation of the situation.

According to the Daily Express, British commanders have already drawn up contingency plans.

“The military leadership will have to organize a comprehensive ‘review’ (of the British training mission) of Orbital to further ensure that all UK personnel are ‘safely withdrawn from Ukrainian territory,'” the publication said.

Most of the British forces in Ukraine are located in the town of Yavoriv, ​​Lviv Oblast, with a small group of headquarters officers in Kiev. In the event of an escalation of the conflict, the British military will go to the border with Poland.

The evacuation order will come from the chief of the British Joint Operations Directorate of Staff, Colonel General Charlie Strickland. His subordinates will soon be “ready”, as well as observe the “atmosphere” and situation. As the newspaper notes, Strickland will receive information about the situation twice a day.

It is noted that more than 100 British troops are training Ukrainian forces.
