Russia Threatens UK Military Sites Over Ukraine Strikes

Russia's Foreign Ministry is warning that Moscow could target British military facilities and equipment both inside Ukraine and beyond its borders, in response to Ukrainian strikes on Russian territory carried out with British-supplied weapons. According to the ministry, spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said London had been repeatedly warned that such retaliation was possible, framing the threat as a direct consequence of continued Western arms support for Kyiv. The statement marks an escalation in the Kremlin's rhetoric toward NATO members supplying long-range weapons to Ukraine, and comes amid growing concern in Western capitals over the risk of the war spilling beyond Ukraine's borders. British officials have not yet responded publicly to the Russian warning, and the claims have not been independently verified beyond the ministry's statement.
