Ukraine War: Russia Condemns UK Missile Support as Analysts Question Putin’s Battlefield Calculations

Russia has condemned Britain's latest military support for Ukraine, accusing London of “adding fuel to the fire” after the UK agreed to share classified technology linked to SCALP long-range missiles.                  

                                                                                                                                                     

British Prime Minister Andy Burnham, visiting Kyiv, defended the decision and reaffirmed Britain's support for Ukraine.

Meanwhile, analysts have questioned whether Vladimir Putin's demands and battlefield expectations reflect a misunderstanding of the realities of the war, particularly as Ukrainian forces continue to impose losses on Russian troops.

The latest developments highlight the growing tension between Moscow and London as Western countries deepen military assistance to Kyiv.
