Russia Warns Kyiv as Strikes Escalate

Russia unleashed over 100 drones and two ballistic missiles on Ukraine overnight, escalating tensions as Kyiv braces for what officials say is a recurring pattern of aerial threats. Despite Russian claims of preparing “systematic” strikes and urging foreign diplomats to evacuate, the U.S., EU, France, and Poland remain in the capital, while the EU rebukes Moscow for stoking panic. Ukraine’s foreign ministry insists the threat level hasn’t changed and offers enhanced security for diplomatic missions. Russian officials hint at targeting underground bunkers and government infrastructure, not symbolic buildings. Ukraine’s air defense faces shortages of advanced U.S. systems—delayed by the Iran conflict—and President Zelenskyy admits progress on production has stalled, though cooperation with Europe is underway. Meanwhile, Ukrainian forces hold steady on the front lines, with some experts viewing Russia’s warnings as a diversion from its own battlefield setbacks and economic strain.
