Residents in Salisbury, Wiltshire, are worried about potential Russian retaliation after a local resident died in a 2018 nerve agent attack linked to Russian intelligence. Now, a drone manufacturer called Callen-Lenz, which supplies drones to Ukraine, is seeking to build a new headquarters nearby. The Nyan drone, developed by Callen-Lenz, has been used by Ukraine in attacks on Russian infrastructure, prompting anger from Russian state media.

Local residents initially expressed concerns over traffic, light pollution, and environmental impacts, but recent Russian threats have led to additional objections.
