Philip Ingram sees Russia, China and Iran stepping up ‘grey zone’ activities across UK and Europe

François Picard is pleased to welcome Philip Ingram, journalist and former British military intelligence officer. The events surrounding RAF Fairford are not an isolated incident, explains Ingram. It's part of a much wider security issue in which conventional military operations, intelligence activity and gray-zone tactics increasingly overlap. More broadly, he would place this episode within the growing pattern of gray-zone activity across Britain and Europe. Russia, China, Iran and their proxies are increasingly operating below the threshold of conventional conflict, using activities that can test security arrangements, probe intelligence networks or create uncertainty without necessarily producing an immediately visible attack. #RAFFairford #Trump #UK Read more about this story in our article: https://f24.my/CCbC.y 🔔 Subscribe to France 24 now: https://f24.my/YTen 🔴 LIVE - Watch FRANCE 24 English 24/7 here: https://f24.my/YTliveEN 🌍 Read the latest International News and Top Stories: https://www.france24.com/en/ Like us on Facebook: https://f24.my/FBen Follow us on X: https://f24.my/Xen Bluesky: https://f24.my/BSen and Threads: https://f24.my/THen Browse the news in pictures on Instagram: https://f24.my/IGen Discover our TikTok videos: https://f24.my/TKen Get the latest top stories on Telegram: https://f24.my/TGen
