Moscow has vowed to strike military and government sites across the Ukrainian capital in retaliation for continuing terrorist attacks
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has spoken with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, warning him that long-range strikes against Kiev are imminent, while reiterating the "recommendation" that foreigners evacuate the Ukrainian capital immediately.
Earlier in the day, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced a shift in Moscow's strategy in the Ukraine conflict, citing the recent deadly attack on a college dorm in the Russian town of Starobelsk, which killed at least 21 people, mainly teenage girls. The incident was the "last straw" for Moscow, which will now embark on a campaign of "systematic strikes" against the Ukrainian capital, targeting military-industrial facilities, command centers, and other sites dotting Kiev.
