salisbury
We threw the book at Russia over the Salisbury attack one year ago, but have done precisely nothing over the murder of a journalist. Why the difference?
The prime minister also thanked the city's emergency services and council staff for their "unprecedented clean-up operation".
In the 12 months since the shocking attack, some 250 detectives have worked on the investigation, collecting more than 11,000 hours of CCTV footage and 1,700 statements from the public.
The site has been declared decontaminated after an almost year-long military clean-up operation.
On 4 March 2018, former Russian double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter were poisoned with a novichok nerve agent in Salisbury. Two Russian nationals, Alexander Petrov and Ruslan Boshirov, were identified as suspects, but an arrest is yet to be made due to protection by Russian extradition laws. It has taken a year for Salisbury to be decontaminated of the poison.
The house is the last site in Salisbury to be decontaminated of the deadly nerve agent.
Almost a year after Sergei and Yulia Skripal were poisoned, people are still told not to pick up litter.
And Russia is apparently trying to hide the evidence.
Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt promised "tough action" on Russia.
British police have released new CCTV footage of the two suspects on the day of the Skripal poisoning. As well as the death of Wiltshire resident, Dawn Sturgess and the poisoning of Detective Sergeant Nick Bailey. The investigation is ongoing.
