Russian
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova restated the May evacuation
advisory for Kyiv during the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, citing
systematic strikes on Ukraine's military infrastructure as a response to
Ukrainian attacks on Russian regions.
Ukrainian authorities reported at least 12 deaths and dozens injured from recent overnight assaults on residential buildings, a railway depot, and other sites.
Western embassies showed mixed reactions to similar warnings in May, staying put despite the alerts, as both sides exchange long-range strikes amid rising civilian casualties.
