Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said France and Britain supplying sensitive missile technology to Ukraine is "playing with fire" and could have unpredictable consequences for Paris and London. Her comments follow UK and French pledges to provide classified technology and speed up air-defence missile deliveries: Britain will allow Kyiv access to classified material to begin indigenous production of the Storm Shadow long-range cruise missile, capable of striking deep inside Russia, and France has authorised Ukrainian use of related European missile technology. RIA quoted the foreign ministry saying Russia may respond to attacks by Ukrainian forces using British weapons by targeting British military assets in Ukraine and abroad.

Russian-speaking hackers used Cursor’s AI coding agent to assist intrusions into at least seven companies in Europe and elsewhere, Israeli cybersecurity start-up Gambit Security said. Gambit said attackers bypassed the AI’s safety controls by claiming the operations were "simulated exercises," enabling credential theft and account takeovers. Gambit estimates AI assistance may have accelerated attack speed by about 30–50%, a development it says heightens concerns that commercial AI agents could accelerate cybercrime.
