Keir Starmer has said a Russian-sponsored attack on a warehouse in London shows the dangers Britons face from Vladimir Putin's regime.
The PM said he would be stepping up efforts to stop fellow world leaders purchasing "tainted resources" from Russia. Mr Starmer, standing alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, told a press conference: "Just a few moments ago, here in the United Kingdom, we saw the sentencing of six men for Russian sponsored arson attack on a warehouse in East London.
"This was a warehouse storing humanitarian aid and satellite equipment destined for Ukraine. We will not tolerate this hostile activity, and it just underlines the point - your security is our security.
"What happens on the frontline of Donetsk today is shaping our collective future for years to come." He accused Vladimir Putin of stalling and playing for time, saying: "Putin is the only person who does not want to stop this war. His strikes on civilians this week made that crystal clear once again, targeting energy infrastructure ahead of winter."
He said a 12-year-old girl and a six month old baby were among those killed in Putin's strike. "This is who Putin is," Mr Starmer stated. "Time after time he rejects the chance to end the war."
