Russia warns Britain over missile technology for Ukraine
Russia said it could strike British military targets in response to Ukrainian attacks using British missiles.
Moscow, Russia. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said Russia could strike British military targets inside and outside Ukraine in response to Ukrainian strikes on Russia using British missiles.
She called on Britain to abandon what she described as a hostile stance on Ukraine, saying it risked escalating the conflict to a new level.
Missile technology
Zakharova said Britain and France were “playing with fire” by supplying sensitive missile technology to Ukraine.
Britain announced on Monday that it would allow Kyiv access to classified technology to begin producing Storm Shadow long-range cruise missiles, which are capable of striking deep inside Russia. France has already approved licensing the technology for the European missile.
