Nato’s top commander says alliance does not want war but is ‘ready to fight tonight’

Nato's top military commander stated that the alliance does not want war but remains "ready to fight tonight" if attacked. The declaration comes amid warnings from European officials that Russia could test the alliance's defences through increased covert attacks or limited military incursions.

European nations have experienced an escalation in these concerning activities in recent months, prompting heightened vigilance and defensive preparations across the alliance.
