Brannum: UK supports Ukraine 100% – new drone jamming systems

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held an official meeting with the new British Prime Minister Andy Brannum, during which London's unwavering support for Kyiv was confirmed. During the talks, the two discussed the continuation of defense cooperation and visited the naval base in Portsmouth.

Technological Support and 'Stonecloak' Systems

One of the key highlights of the meeting was the announced provision of access to 'Stonecloak' electronic jamming technology. According to information from Downing Street, thousands of such systems have already been delivered to Ukraine. These compact, tablet-sized devices can be mounted on unmanned aerial vehicles and make it difficult for them to be detected by Russian air defense systems, allowing Ukrainian drones to strike at greater distances.

A Message of Alliance

Andy Brannum emphasized that Zelenskyy is the first foreign leader he has received since taking office, which is a "clear message." "We stand behind Ukraine 100%. I personally am with you 100% and will fulfill every promise made by the UK to Ukraine," the British Prime Minister stated.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed his gratitude for the reception on the social network X, noting that the visit of the Ukrainian delegation is an important sign of the country's unwavering support.

Training of Naval Specialists

In Portsmouth, it was learned that approximately 200 Ukrainian servicemen are undergoing training with British instructors. The program is aimed at improving combat skills and mine countermeasures tactics, which are critical for operations in the Black Sea.

The provision of new technologies and personnel training comes at a time when Ukraine is expanding its actions, directing attacks against oil infrastructure, military sites, and logistics centers within Russian territory.
