Russia imposes travel restrictions on British diplomats over ‘hostile actions’

Russia is imposing restrictions on British diplomats, demanding they give five days’ notice before travelling further than 75 miles "free movement zone" in a retaliation against "hostile actions". Moscow summoned senior diplomat Tom Dodd to its foreign ministry to tell him of the move. It said he was given a dressing down for Britain’s support of what the Kremlin deems Ukraine’s "terrorist actions" and for allegedly obstructing Russian diplomacy in the UK.
