US urges citizens to depart Ukraine, citing possible Russian attacks on civilian targets

“The Department of State has information that Russia is stepping up efforts to launch strikes against Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure and government facilities in the coming days,” the Embassy said.

Warning that Russian strikes in Ukraine pose a continued threat to civilians and civilian infrastructure, the Embassy urged “U.S. citizens to depart Ukraine now using privately available ground transportation options if it is safe to do so.” (ILKHA)
