Russia has threatened United Kingdom and said that it would ‘pay’ after Ukraine used British-made drones to hit targets on Russian soil.
Moscow’s embassy in London accused the UK for the deliberate ‘escalation of the Ukraine crisis’ after the drones were used on the territory for the first time.
‘Reports that the Kiev regime is using British drones to carry out strikes deep inside Russian territory confirm that London is deliberately opting for an escalation of the Ukraine crisis, while hypocritically professing a desire for peace,’ the embassy posted on Telegram.
‘In doing so, the United Kingdom is acting as an accomplice and co-perpetrator of the bloody crimes and terrorist attacks committed by Ukrainian neo-Nazis, seeking to contain Russia and inflict maximum damage on it by proxy.
‘London’s actions will inevitably carry consequences for which it will have to answer. The deeper its involvement in the conflict and the greater its support for Kiev’s terrorist machinery, the higher the price it will pay.’
On Wednesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin threatened to seize British ships in the Pacific.
