LONDON — Sergei V. Skripal, the former Russian spy who was poisoned in early March in England, has been released from a hospital, officials said on Friday.

The British authorities said that Russia was to blame for the attack, touching off a diplomatic dispute that led to the expulsion of hundreds of diplomats from the West and Russia.
