It's an odd one. They're not Russian, and they've got no apparent link to the intelligence or security community so seems highly unlikely they'd be targeted. So best guess is they've somehow come into contact with some novichok that was left behind from the previous poisoning 4 months ago, but if so it's strange that it's taken so long.
Or maybe Putin is just having people poisoned for shits and giggles now.
We may never know the truth, but the most likely explanation is that one of those two is a MI6 operative who is responsible for turning Russians to the British Secret Intelligence Service (SIS). It is likely a warning not to the British intelligence community not to keep turning their people.
