Kyiv — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy announced that his country will intensify attacks on Russian oil refineries in retaliation for Moscow's new policy of airstrikes aimed at compelling citizens to evacuate cities like Kyiv, according to Reuters. Zelenskiy's intelligence agencies have uncovered documents indicating that Russian President Vladimir Putin had introduced a "new doctrine" of military strikes targeting a wider array of civilian infrastructure during the upcoming winter, Zelenskiy revealed.
"We saw documents and we know that they allow them to attack infrastructure, logistics, and especially to attack in the cities, in the villages, everywhere, roads, schools, hospitals," the Ukrainian leader told the news outlet in an exclusive interview. Zelenskiy stated that the primary objective of this military escalation is to compel residents to abandon Kyiv and various other urban centers.
The Kremlin did not respond to inquiries about the matter. In a separate statement, Ukrainian officials urged foreign nationals to leave the country.
