UK, French and German troops to rehearse a Ukraine ceasefire mission

Oct 17: At least 1,500 UK, French and German troops will rehearse a post-ceasefire Ukraine mission in Poland in November, The Times reports. UK Defence Secretary Wes Streeting confirmed the drill. Polish forces will take part, and they will rehearse moving troops, fuel and food, The Times reports. Streeting confirmed "thousands of personnel." It is a rehearsal, not a decision to deploy troops to Ukraine. Kyiv Post says it was announced after Streeting-Hegseth Pentagon talks on Oct 15. Record
