Quick Glance: Increase in UK defence spending by 2030

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak commits to raising spending to 2.5% of GDP, putting the defence industry on a 'war footing'.

Sunak emphasized the need for deeper stockpiles of munitions and quicker replenishment due to the events in the Ukraine conflict.

The planned increase in defence spending would require significant financial reshuffling, partly through announced measures to reduce the size of the civil service.

Shortly after announcing the pledge to send weapons worth 500 million pounds to Ukraine, this commitment followed.

Quick Glance: Russian Deputy Defense Minister Detained on Bribery Suspicions

A Russian deputy defense minister, Timur Ivanov, exposed in an investigation by the late opposition leader Alexei Navalny, was placed in custody on Wednesday under suspicion of accepting significant bribes.

Ivanov, 48, a longtime ally of Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, was responsible for construction and procurement for the Armed Forces and was associated with the high-profile reconstruction of the Ukrainian city of Mariupol occupied by Moscow's forces.

Several independent Russian media outlets alleged that Ivanov and his family amassed immense wealth through kick-backs on contracts he approved at the ministry.

Critics argue that the substantial funds flowing into the Ukraine offensive have provided officials with new avenues to enrich themselves through covert procurement agreements.

Quick Glance: Record Audience at NCAA Women's Championship

South Carolina's victory over Caitlin Clark and Iowa in Sunday's women's NCAA championship game garnered a preliminary average viewership of 18.7 million on ABC and ESPN.

Nielsen's final numbers on Tuesday may reveal an increase in viewership.

It marks the most-watched basketball game since 2019, when the men's NCAA title game between Virginia and Texas Tech averaged 19.6 million viewers on CBS.

The women's final also recorded the highest viewership for a Sunday afternoon sporting event on ESPN and ABC since early 2021.
