EKO HOT BLOG reports that the Russian government has accused the UK of “provoking” Ukraine into attacking Russian territory.
Russia’s defence ministry said it was ready to hit “decision-making centres” in Kyiv should such attacks occur.
The presence of Western advisers at such centres might not affect its decision to retaliate, it added.
It comes after a UK defence minister said it was “not necessarily a problem” for Ukraine to use UK-supplied arms against military targets in Russia.
James Heappey said Ukrainian military strikes to disrupt supply lines were a “legitimate” part of war, and described Russian claims of Nato being in conflict with Russia as “nonsense”.
Russia has claimed Ukrainian forces have attacked targets within its territory, including an oil depot in Belgorod, but Ukraine has not confirmed any strikes.
