RAF chief warns Libya stretching resources
Air Chief Marshal Sir Simon Bryant told lawmakers that operations in Afghanistan and Libya are placing a huge demand on equipment and personnel at a time when morale is "fragile" due to sweeping defence cuts.
The head of British air force combat operations has warned that future operations will be at risk if U.K. engagement in Libya lasts through the summer.
Air Chief Marshal Sir Simon Bryant told lawmakers that operations in Afghanistan and Libya are placing a huge demand on equipment and personnel at a time when morale is “fragile” due to sweeping defence cuts.
His comments in a briefing paper, leaked to Britain’s Daily Telegraph newspaper and published on Tuesday, were given to lawmakers last month, before Britain’s Navy chief Mark Stanhope said the government will face tough choices if the intervention in Libya’s civil war continues beyond six months.
Prime Minister David Cameron has insisted Britain can sustain its part in NATO operations in Libya as long as necessary.
Yes NATO strike on Libya should end..An election should be conducted instead..
