RUSSIA’S ambassador to the UK has blamed Britain for Ukraine’s “historic” drone attack – and chillingly warned of World War Three.
Moscow diplomat Andrei Kelin said that Ukrainian attacks “are bringing the conflict to a different level of escalation”.
Over the weekend, Volodymyr Zelensky hailed Ukraine’s daring drone blitz on Russian airbases as one for the “history books”.
It marked Kyiv’s longest range operation of the conflict so far with at least 40 aircraft being attacked as part of the expert operation codenamed “Spiderweb”.
In an embarrassing result for a raging Vladimir Putin 34 per cent of his cruise missile carriers at the targeted airfields were blasted, Zelensky said.
A £260million AWACS aircraft and bombers capable of dropping nuclear weapons were also struck.
Ukraine said the sneak attack was worth $7bn (£5.2bn) in damage to Russia.
But Russian ambassador to the UK Kelin warned that Kyiv shouldn’t “try to engulf World War Three” in an interview with Sky News.
He also seemingly blamed the UK for potentially providing Ukraine with weaponry that could have been used during the weekend attacks.
He said: “[This] kind of attack involves, of course, provision of very high technology, so-called geospaced data, which only can be done by those who have it in possession.
“And this is London and Washington.
“I don’t believe that America [is involved], that has been denied by President Trump, definitely, but it has not been denied by London.
“We perfectly know how much London is involved, how deeply British forces are involved in working together with Ukraine.”
US President Donald Trump has spent the past few months since he returned to office trying to balance his relationship with both Moscow and Kyiv.
In his latest attempt to draw both sides closer to a ceasefire he spoke with Putin over the phone in a 75 minute call.
Trump revealed that the despot made it clear he feels he “will have to respond” to the audacious drone assault.
It comes as The Sun laid out the six possible methods Putin may use to respond to the enemy.
The tyrant could retaliate with one of his terrifying tactical nukes, launch a deadly 7,600mph missile or even order a renewed 50,000 troop assault to overpower his enemies.
The Kremlin gave a chilling response earlier today regarding how they may respond.
A spokesperson said: “Russian Federation will respond to the attack on airfields when and in the way that the military deems appropriate.”
And overnight, Vlad already launched his first retaliatory strikes on several residential regions.
The worst saw a baby, their mum and grandma all killed due to a Shahed kamikaze drone blast which caused their home to collapse.
Two others were also found dead in Chernihiv with another 17 seriously wounded in Kharkiv.
