Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova announced that British military facilities could be targeted in response to Ukraine's strikes on Russian territory using British weapons.
Modern.az reports that Zakharova spoke about this at a briefing on August 27.
According to her, in response to Ukraine's strikes on Russian territory using British-made or British-supplied weapons, any British military facility and equipment located in Ukraine and beyond its borders could become a target.
“Russia has repeatedly warned that in response to Ukrainian strikes on Russian territory using British weapons, any British military facility and equipment in Ukraine and beyond its borders could be a target,” Zakharova said.
The diplomat also called the deployment of foreign military contingents in Ukraine unacceptable. According to her, foreign forces that would hinder Russia's military operations will be considered legitimate military targets by Moscow. This position was voiced by Zakharova earlier.
Zakharova's latest statement comes against the backdrop of recent decisions regarding Britain giving Ukraine access to technology for the production of long-range Storm Shadow missiles. According to Reuters, London has agreed to give Kyiv access to secret technologies for the production of these missiles.
