A man from Swindon, Joshua Cammidge, is accused of plotting to help Russia sabotage a UK drone factory, according to reports citing court filings. Prosecutors say he received instructions from Aiden Minnis, a British man who is fighting for Russia against Ukraine and is believed to be linked to the GRU.
Both outlets describe the case as involving alleged co-ordination with individuals associated with Russia’s military intelligence. The i reports that Cammidge was asked to sabotage the factory, framing the allegation as direct instruction from Minnis. Metro similarly describes Cammidge as planning to assist Russia’s GRU Volunteer Corps, presenting the accusation as part of a broader effort attributed to the GRU-linked volunteer grouping.
The reports focus on the alleged role of Cammidge and the purported connection to Russian actors and units, while they do not detail the specific sabotage method in the excerpts provided. The allegations are before the courts, and the reports present them as claims by prosecutors rather than established facts.
