Russia should explain itself over Novichok use — UK minister

Britain’s interior minister says Russia should explain itself after a couple fell ill from exposure to a Soviet-made nerve agent near a town where a former Russian spy was poisoned with the same substance.

“It is now time that the Russian state comes forward and explains exactly what has gone on,” Sajid Javid tells parliament, repeating the government’s accusations of Russian involvement in the poisoning earlier this year that Moscow has firmly denied.
