A company based in Cheshire, Cygnet Texkimp, is under scrutiny regarding a decision to allow exports of hi-tech equipment to Armenia due to potential links to the Russian military supply chain.

Separately, Lucy Harrison, a 23-year-old woman from Cheshire (Warrington), was unlawfully killed in Texas after being accidentally shot by her father during a visit. A British coroner ruled the death as unlawful due to gross negligence.
