Dear Sir, – I note from a letter dated -18th of September, a correspondent proposed supplying Ukraine with long-range missiles to defend against a foe who is reportedly targeting residential buildings, educational institutions, and healthcare facilities.
However, I find it perplexing that we aren’t offering similar defensive artillery to Gaza and the West Bank that are also under occupation. Are we, in this instance, being hypocritical? Yours faithfully,
JOHN DUNNE,
