US Embassy in Kyiv Closes Amid Threat of Major Russian Air Attack
The US and several European embassies in Kyiv have temporarily closed due to intelligence indicating a potential large-scale Russian missile and drone attack on the Ukrainian capital. The US embassy issued a rare warning, advising staff to shelter in place, while Italy and Greece also closed their embassies. France and the UK opted to remain open but advised caution. This move follows increased Russian attacks and a recent Ukrainian strike on Russian soil using US-supplied missiles. The situation underscores heightened tensions and the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
