Just one day after Burnham backed Ukraine,Kremlin adviser Andrei Fyodorov said that ‘unknown sources’ may soon strike British drone factories.
He told the BBC that Moscow officials are facing ‘serious’ pressure ‘to undertake certain measures against the UK’.
The Russian Foreign Ministry also threatened to attack British military targets in Ukraine and ‘beyond’ in relation.
Spokesman Maria Zakharova accused London of being ‘one step away’ from ‘inevitable catastrophic consequences’,according to Russia’s TASS news agency.
