THE Kremlin has issued a chilling threat to the UK by brazenly naming the exact four locations they would target with Russian missiles.
Vladimir Putin’s defence ministry directly threatened to strike British targets in London, Leicester, Reading and Suffolk due to their links to the Ukrainian military.
Russia alleges that each of the four locations are responsible for producing military equipment for the Ukrainian armed forces.
It comes after Britain signed a fresh £30million deal to arm Ukraine with attack drones.
The list also includes dozens of potential targets across multiple European countries who are all allies of Ukraine.
It includes alleged production facilities in Germany, Denmark, The Netherlands, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, the Czech Republic, Spain, Italy, Israel and Turkey.
Russia’s Ministry of Defence (MoD) say these alleged war supply hotspots are “increasingly drawing these countries into war with Russia”.
The Kremlin names the RAF base at Mildenhall in Suffolk as one of the locations after accusing a Ukrainian missile firm of having a facility there.
The Sun is not naming the alleged companies directly listed in the grotesque Russian hit-list.
Former Russian president, turned Kremlin propaganda puppet, Dmitry Medvedev said Western leaders should take the threat “literally”.
He warned: “The list of European facilities which make drones [and] other equipment is a list of potential targets for the Russian armed forces.
“When strikes become a reality depends on what comes next. Sleep well, European partners!”
Russia’s MoD called the alleged supply chain to Ukraine a “deliberate step leading to a sharp escalation”.
It warned that “terrorist attacks against Russia” could lead to “unpredictable consequences”.
The threats to the UK came just hours after it was revealed the UK is providing 120,000 drones to Ukraine.
The package will include long-range strike drones, reconnaissance drones, logistics drones and aircraft with maritime capabilities.
Many of the drones are expected to have been produced by UK-based companies.
Defence Secretary John Healey called it a “big boost” to Ukraine as he said it will be the largest delivery of its kind.
The move is feared to have sparked the intense warnings from Russia.
Putin’s MoD claimed in the scathing report: “The leadership of several European countries, amid mounting losses and a worsening shortage of manpower in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, decided to increase the production and supply of UAVs to Ukraine for strikes on Russian territory.
“A significant increase in UAV production for the Kyiv regime is planned through increased funding for Ukrainian and joint enterprises located in European countries that produce attack drones and their components.”
Warmonger Vladimir Solvoyov, Putin’s state TV propagandist-in-chief, saif the move shows that Europeans are “legitimate targets”.
He said: “I am very pleased that the Ministry of Defence has begun to implement, in a clear and precise manner and with specific targets, the idea that we have been putting forward on this platform for a very long time.
“The Europeans are taking risks, and they are becoming legitimate targets for us.”
