After playing the game for an hour or so I am suddenly unable to deploy/raid or do haven defence. The button just takes you to a geoscape view and a description of either the thing your trying to raid or just no text. Looking around this appears to be the same issue noted here,

This is on the console version on a PS5 but I previously played the game on a PS4 and encountered the same thing. Just wondering if this is a real ‘bug’ or just something in the console versions where you have to do something not explicitly stated (eg click and hold the D pad up button or something)

Hello,

One thing worth trying is fully closing the game and restarting it, as some PS5 players said that cleared the problem for them.
