The Russian Embassy in London has warned that Britain will pay a 'higher price' and face diplomatic consequences after UK-made attack drones were used to hit targets deep inside Russia, in the first confirmed cross-border strikes involving British-built unmanned aircraft since the invasion began.
Moscow accused the British government of deliberately betting on an escalation of the Ukrainian crisis after reports confirmed that UK-manufactured unmanned aircraft have hit strategic targets across the border for the first time since Vladimir Putin launched the invasion in February 2022.
