Russia says it will continue massive strikes on Kyiv, issues threats to diplomatic missions
Russian forces will continue to carry out massive strikes on Ukraine, including Kyiv, Russia’s Foreign Ministry said on Oct. 3, according to Russian state propaganda media.
On October 3, Russia's Foreign Ministry announced that it would continue its extensive attacks on Ukraine, specifically targeting Kyiv, according to Russian state media. The ministry's statement served as a warning to foreign citizens, including diplomatic mission representatives, to avoid staying in Kyiv or traveling to Ukraine due to imminent mortal danger. Moscow reiterated that its armed forces would persist in conducting significant retaliatory strikes.
According to the Guardian, Western diplomats were privately discussing the possibility of relocating embassies to Lviv or eastern Poland in response to the escalating Russian strikes on Kyiv. However, Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Heorhi Tykhyi denied these rumors during an interview with NV. He stated that the ministry had not received any such requests or reports from foreign diplomatic missions.
On October 4, Ukrainian officials were expected to visit Kyiv. The State Protection Department of Ukraine issued a warning about anticipated road traffic restrictions in the capital and surrounding regions.
