Moscow has threatened Britain with consequences after claims that British-made drones supplied to Ukraine were employed in attacks on Russian military and industrial sites. The Sunday Times reported that drones produced by two British companies were used in strikes from within Russian borders. Russia’s embassy in London accused Britain of becoming "an accomplice and co-perpetrator" of the strikes and cautioned that Britain's growing support for Kyiv intensifies the risk of escalation.
The Sunday Times did not disclose the second company, citing security concerns. Britain's Defence Ministry has not yet commented on the warning. Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Britain has provided about £25 billion in aid, including £16 billion in military assistance. Ukraine has ramped up long-range strikes on Russian territory, while Russia has escalated its own missile and drone attacks on Kyiv.
This latest threat highlights the escalating tensions between Moscow and London over Britain's military backing for Ukraine and the increased use of long-range weaponry in the conflict.
