Following today’s massive Russian missile attacks on the capital of Kiev and other Ukrainian cities – and as tensions escalate – the United States embassy in Kyiv has called on American citizens to leave Ukrainian soil “when it becomes safe to do so”.

“Russia’s continued strikes in Ukraine pose a direct threat to the population and political infrastructure,” the US embassy said in a statement.

The embassy’s announcement is as follows:

“Russia has launched attacks against Ukrainian political infrastructure, as well as government facilities in Kyiv and elsewhere. Russia’s ongoing attacks on Ukraine pose a direct threat to civilians and political infrastructure. The U.S. Embassy urges U.S. citizens to seek shelter in place and depart Ukraine now using privately available ground transportation options when it is safe to do so.”
