The Russian ambassador to the UK is to be summoned by the Foreign Office, Sky News has reported. The deadly overnight attack on Ukraine launched by Russia killed at least 15 people, including four children.
Among the many buildings struck during the attack, which saw 629 drones and 31 missiles fired by Putin's forces, was a British Council building. Speaking after the attack, the group's chief executive, Scott McDonald, said their guard for the building was injured but in a "stable" condition. He added: "At the insistence of my amazing colleagues, we will continue operations in Ukraine today wherever possible Their resilience is awe-inspiring and I am deeply thankful they are all safe." Earlier, Sir Keir Starmer lashed out at Vladimir Putin for the attack, saying: "My thoughts are with all those affected by the senseless Russian strikes on Kyiv which have damaged the British Council building. Putin is killing children and civilians, and sabotaging hopes of peace. This bloodshed must end."
