The Telegraph, citing senior British military chief:
Britain has run out of defence equipment to donate to Ukraine and other countries should step in and shoulder more of the burden.
A senior military source told The Telegraph that the onus should not be on the UK to provide the โbillionsโ Mr Wallace has called for.
โGiving billions more doesnโt mean giving billions of British kit,โ they said, adding that the UK had a role to play in โencouraging other nations to give more money and weaponsโ.
โWeโve given away just about as much as we can afford,โ they added.
โWe will continue to source equipment to provide for Ukraine, but what they need now is things like air defence assets and artillery ammunition and weโve run dry on all that.โ

#BREAKING The Daily Mail:
Fifty-five Chinese sailors are feared dead after their nuclear submarine apparently got caught in a trap intended to ensnare British sub-surface vessels in the Yellow Sea.
According to a secret UK report the seamen died following a catastrophic failure of the submarine's oxygen systems which poisoned the crew.
The captain of the Chinese PLA Navy submarine '093-417' is understood to be among the deceased, as are 21 other officers.
Officially, China has denied the incident took place. It also appears Beijing refused to request international assistance for its stricken submarine.
The UK report into the fatal mission reads: 'Intelligence reports that on 21st of August there was an onboard accident whilst carrying out a mission in the Yellow Sea.
'Incident happened at 08.12 local resulting in the death of 55 crew members: 22 officers, 7 officer cadets, 9 petty officers, 17 sailors. Dead include the captain Colonel Xue Yong-Peng.
'Our understanding is death caused by hypoxia due to a system fault on the submarine. The submarine hit a chain and anchor obstacle used by the Chinese Navy to trap US and allied submarines.
'This resulted in systems failures that took six hours to repair and surface the vessel. The onboard oxygen system poisoned the crew after a catastrophic failure.'

The Exodus of Russian ships from Sevastopol
Russian Black Sea Fleet moved most of its ships from Sevastopol to Novorossiysk.
All three operational submarines of Project 06363 (Kilo-class), both frigates of Project 11356 (Admiral Grigorovich-class) & one patrol ship moved to Novorossiysk.
Project 1135M (Krivak-class frigate), five large landing ships, and, apparently, the bulk of small missile ships are also in Novorossiysk.
Another part of the ships - one large landing ship, two small missile ships and both new minesweepers of Project 12700 (Alexandrit-class) - moved from Sevastopol to Feodosia.
