Special Maritime Operations = UK Commando Force
This morning, Commandos from 42 conducted a maritime interdiction operation on the vessel CMR Smyrtos, sailing under a false Cameroonian flag.
Just another night's work for the UKCF's Special Maritime Operations specialist unit.
Strengthening strategic security across the Atlantic. 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Marines from UKCF deployed to Arkansas for a joint exercise with US Federal Agents, focusing on close-quarters battle (CQB), tactical marksmanship, dynamic entry, and breaching.
Warfighting readiness in action.
From real-time uncrewed aerial surveillance to mobile heavy fire support and Commando Helicopter Force extraction—the UK Commando Force integrates modern tech with raw firepower to strike first and adapt fast.

During a visit to @NATO_ACT, GEN Sir Rob Magowan KCB CBE ADC RM, Commander of the UK's Cyber & Specialist Operations Command, explored how advances in AI and data-enabled warfare, intelligence and reconnaissance, targeting, and cyber and electromagnetic activities are reshaping the way @NATO operates across domains, and how nations can adopt these capabilities at pace.

Side by side. From start to finish. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
On 9/11, the world changed—and the Royal Marines answered the call alongside our US partners.
That bond, forged in combat, remains the bedrock of our alliance today.
We remember those lost 25 years ago and all who fell.
On the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks, the United Kingdom remembers the near 3,000 people who lost their lives on that terrible day, including 67 British citizens.
We pay tribute to all those affected including frontline emergency workers, who continue to confront the threat of terrorism and put their lives at risk to protect others. We honour the courage and sacrifice of members of the Armed Forces who have lost their lives in the fight against terrorism.
Britain stood with our American friends a quarter of a century ago. We stand with you today. 🇬🇧🇺🇸
A detachment of Royal Marines stood in Oslo to honor His Majesty King Harald V of Norway. 🇬🇧🇳🇴
As the UK’s High North warfighting specialists, our operational integration with Norway is core to who we are.
Honor, capability, and an unbroken alliance.

❄️ The High North matters. So does being ready to defend it.
Operation Atlantic City 26 brings together forces from Norway 🇳🇴, the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 and United States 🇺🇸 to sharpen Allied readiness in the Arctic.
Against growing strategic competition, Allies are training to operate together across vast distances, extreme cold and challenging terrain.
Because credible deterrence isn’t just about having capable forces - it’s about demonstrating the ability to deploy, operate and fight together where it matters.
Ready in the High North. Strong across the Atlantic.

In the early hours of this morning, I directed our Armed Forces to intercept a shadow fleet oil tanker attempting to pass through the English Channel.
This successful operation delivers yet another blow to Russia and reminds those fueling Putin's war in Ukraine that we will not let them hide.
I want to thank those involved, including our Armed Forces and law enforcement officers who keep this country safe 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
3 Commando Brigade has officially become the UK Commando Force.
The UKCF is now a hybrid naval warfighting force:
• High-tech, dispersed strike teams
• Heavy integration of uncrewed & autonomous systems
• Deeply integrated into Royal Navy fleet operations

We are putting words into action.
A Hybrid Navy. Northern allies. Real deterrence in the High North and North Atlantic in support of @NATO.
Last week all @JEFnations signed a statement of intent committing each nation to working up detailed proposals.
