Kazakhstan's Embassy in Ukraine called on its citizens to leave the country. The message from the Kazakh Embassy came soon after embassies of the United States, Greece, Spain and Italy suspended their work due to the threat of a "massive airstrike."
According to US intelligence services, Russia is preparing a major air strike on Ukraine, which led to the closure of several embassies, including the US Embassy.
Ukrainian resources said that three Tupolev Tu-95MS strategic bombers (a combined salvo of up to 18 Kh-101 missiles) took off from the Olenya airfield. The airfield is located on the Kola Peninsula in Northern Russia. It is believed that the aircraft took off for redeployment.
Seven Russian Tu-95MS bombers are already in the air.
