A propagandist on state television has escalated tensions, with a stark nuclear warning aimed at Sir Keir Starmer's coalition, claiming they will "kill all British people".
Vladimir Solovyov, who is often perceived as an instrument of and frequently discusses the conflict in on air, delivered the ominous warning amid allegations in Western media and the efforts of European nations to back Ukraine. During his appearance on the program 'Sunday Evening With Vladimir Solovyov', the Kremlin's broadcaster asserted that it was evident the UK and US "are directly waging against us."
He declared: "You don't understand the main thing. We see right through your coalition of peacemakers, who are not peacemakers but basically interventionists, will be destroyed. You have to realise that not only the frontline units you're planning to deploy on the territory of Ukraine will be destroyed, but since we can't perceive it in any other way other than the direct participation of your countries, you will feel the consequences, the likes of which you have never seen."

He ominously continued with a foreboding message: "All of your howling will not help you." Solovyov didn't stop there; he cast a sombre warning to Britain, France, Germany, and even the Baltic states, saying "your fate will be sad."
Joining the threatening rhetoric, fellow commentator Margarita Simonyan referenced a recent piece in The Times as evidence that "the West is backing down." Offering her interpretation of the situation, she remarked: "The article basically says, 'Should we keep going? If we go on that means we have to send our troops. Is the British public ready for this? Because our people may perish.'
And with chilling certainty, she continued: "It's not that they may perish. They will certainly perish. We will kill them all," reports .
The commentary was analysed and translated by Despite President ’s declarations that he would swiftly bring an end to the conflict in Ukraine, as his presidency approaches the 100-day milestone, peace looks increasingly elusive.
Last month, a ceasefire was brokered in the Black Sea region; however, skirmishes persist unabated at the front lines. Continuing aggression has seen relentlessly bombarding Ukrainian cities and infrastructure. This Sunday, Russian forces carried out a missile attack on Sumy, claiming 35 lives and leaving 117 wounded.
Addressing the grim outcome, the US President pointed out, without giving specifics, that the "terrible" strike occurred after Russian forces "made a mistake". UN Secretary-General António Guterres’ spokesperson expressed his "deeply alarmed and shocked" state upon learning of the bombardment.
He asserted: "Attacks against civilians and civilian objects are prohibited under international humanitarian law, and that any such attacks, wherever they occur, must end immediately."
Leveraging the brutality of the strike, Ukrainian President has highlighted the discrepancy between Russia’s public facade and its war-time actions, using it to emphasise their lack of commitment to peace.
Russia asserts that its target was a gathering of Ukrainian soldiers in the city, yet it has not provided any evidence to support this claim. However, on Tuesday, Zelensky reportedly dismissed Sumy's regional chief for allegedly conducting a medal presentation ceremony, as per local media reports.
