UK Backs Right Of Ukraine To Attack Russian Territory – Kremlin Warns London Of “Proportional Response”

The UK’s armed forces minister said in a Tuesday radio interview that it is “completely legitimate” for Ukraine to strike Russian territory, after allegations out of the Kremlin earlier this month that the Ukrainians have on a couple of occasions done just that in cross-border incidents.

The defense chief, James Heappey, told Times Radio in the remarks that, “In war, Ukraine needs to strike into its opponents’ depth to attack its logistics lines, its fuel supplies, its ammunition depots, and that’s part of it.”

“It is completely legitimate for Ukraine to be targeting in Russia’s depth in order to disrupt the logistics, that if they weren’t disrupted would directly contribute to death and carnage on Ukrainian soil,” he added.
