Skripal cousin: I fear I'm in 'information war'

Yulia Skripal's cousin says she fears she is caught up in an "information war" over the phone call with her cousin.

Earlier today, a state-owned Russian TV channel aired a recording of an alleged phone conversation between Ms Skripal and her cousin, Viktoria. Doubts have been cast on how authentic the recording is.

Yulia Skripal and her father Sergei - a former spy - were poisoned by a nerve agent in Salisbury in March.

Viktoria spoke to Newsnight's Gabriel Gatehouse.
