The commandos were involved in ‘discreet operations’ and performed tasks in a ‘hugely sensitive environment’, according to Lieutenant General Robert Magowan – Britain’s Deputy Chief of the Defence Staff and the former head of the Royal Marines.

Update: Royal Marines deployed to Ukraine for ‘high-risk covert ops’ against Russia (Express)  

WNU Editor: What a crazy admission to make public with tensions sky-high right now between Russia and NATO.

The Ministry of Defense is now jumping in and doing damage control. Saying that these Royal Marines were not involved in “combat operations” in Ukraine. Sighhh …. it is too late. Whatever explanation or clarification is made no one is going to believe it.
