The United Kingdom has admitted to sending troops into the Ukraine.

British Royal Marines conducted high-risk operations in Ukraine in April, Lieutenant General Robert Magowan has admitted, according to a report in The Times on Tuesday.

Russia has consistently warned that NATO troops have been active in the conflict, but these statements have been dismissed by Western analysts and media.

Members of 45 Commando Group of the Royal Marines left Ukraine in January after evacuating the British embassy in Kiev to Poland. However, some 300 members of the elite unit were sent back into the country in April to reestablish the British mission in Kiev, before going on to conduct “other discreet operations,” Magowan wrote in the force’s official journal, The Globe and Laurel, the newspaper said.

These operations took place “in a hugely sensitive environment and with a high level of political and military risk,” Magowan, who formerly served as commandant general of the Royal Marines and is now deputy chief of Defense Staff at the Ministry of Defense, stated.

We already knew that Western troops were involved in military operations over there. They’ve been over there for months if not since the start of the conflict. So this is just a confirmation of what was just obvious fact.

You would think that this confirmation of Western troops being engaged in military conflict against Russia would be bigger news, but the story has mostly been buried. There actually hasn’t been a ton of focus on the Ukraine conflict in recent weeks largely because it is becoming more and more obvious that the Ukrainian side is losing very badly.
