There are not enough words to do justice to the great friend and colleague we have lost. Curious, imaginative, kind, a personification of journalistic rigour and integrity. Massive 40k fan. Many of us have achieved things we would not have even tried without him. RIP

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of our colleague, David Knowles.

David was a talented journalist and a much-loved friend and a colleague. He will be greatly missed.

Russia’s intelligence services are escalating a campaign of sabotage, arson and subversion across Europe, with Britain among their key targets.

@davidblairdt and @RolandOliphant look at how the GRU, FSB and SVR operate, from recruiting young Europeans for sabotage to targeting critical infrastructure ⬇️
