How might Russia retaliate against UK military support for Ukraine?
Security sources say the Kremlin is preparing retaliatory action against UK interests after Andy Burnham gave Ukraine the technical specifications for Storm Shadow missiles, a move already followed by Russia withdrawing its ambassador [1]. A Kremlin insider has warned on BBC Newsnight that Russia intends to hit back over the missile blueprints and intelligence-sharing with attacks staged to appear as coming "from unknown sources", effectively a deniable proxy campaign, with one analyst suggesting Putin could order action causing serious disruption and loss of life if he chooses [2].
