DÉFENSE ZONE
[Update: the offer ends this Sunday 2 August at midnight!]
Summer is here. And with it comes the chance to finally take the time to understand. Throughout our summer offer, every new Premium subscriber gets a welcome gift: a book, a magazine, a patch or even (for professionals only) visibility with 15,000 readers. Here is why now is the right time to join us.
Let’s be honest: good information is hard to come by
You are interested in military affairs, intelligence and geopolitics. So you have noticed the same thing we have: information is everywhere, but good information is nowhere.
Rolling news channels that cover a special operation in ninety seconds. Feeds that run wild over rumours that are never checked. “Experts” who change their minds with the wind. In the middle of all this noise, how can you tell fact from speculation? How can you step back when everything is handled with urgency and emotion?
It is precisely to meet this need that Défense Zone exists. And it is to do so freely that we made a radical choice: to depend on no one but our readers.
By subscribing, you take concrete action
Here is what you need to understand, and it is the heart of this offer: Défense Zone is an independent media outlet, funded solely by its subscribers and a few carefully selected partners. No subsidies, no shareholders to answer to.
This means your subscription is not a mere transaction. It is direct support, and it has very concrete consequences:
- You fund our field reporting, the kind that is expensive and time-consuming.
- You help journalists investigate seriously, travel and check their sources rather than copy wire stories.
- You defend a truly independent press, free to choose its subjects and its tone, on defence issues where that freedom has become precious.
Put simply: every euro you entrust to us goes back into the field. You are not paying to consume news; you are investing so that it continues to exist.
And in return, you get the best of Défense Zone
Supporting us is good. But let’s be clear: being a Premium subscriber also means enjoying content you will not find anywhere else.
Clear, reliable and useful information. Our field reports and strategic analyses, by the Défense Zone team, on military units and law enforcement forces.
The Monday morning Strategic Watch. Every week, 40 to 50 key news items analysed, sorted and summarised for you. You stay one step ahead without spending your evenings on it.
Exclusive podcasts and in-depth features. RAID, GIGN, Barkhane, special forces… episodes reserved for subscribers, impossible to find elsewhere.
All the magazine archives. All our issues in digital form, available at will: a genuine reference library that keeps growing.
And, depending on your plan, the print magazine, printed in France 🇫🇷 and delivered straight to your letterbox.
The summer offer: your welcome gift depending on your plan
