“This is a step towards a further escalation, and a serious one at that,” Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.

He added that the use of such ammunition would “sharply reduce” Ukraine’s ability to “produce high-quality, uncontaminated food”.

It came after Putin vowed the Uk would be “forced to react” to any such moves by the UK.
