U.S. Issues Warning of Potential Major Russian Air Attack on Ukraine

The U.S. Embassy in Kyiv alerted American citizens about a heightened risk of a significant air attack on Ukraine within the next few days, citing intelligence assessments. The embassy’s statement, posted on its official website, urged citizens to be prepared for immediate shelter in the event of an air raid alert, reflecting growing concerns over ongoing Russian strikes targeting Ukrainian infrastructure.

“The U.S. Embassy in Kyiv has received information regarding a potentially serious air attack that could occur at any time over the next few days. As always, the Embassy advises U.S. citizens to be ready to take immediate shelter should an air raid alert be issued,” the statement read.

While specific details regarding the nature or timing of the anticipated attack were not disclosed, the warning comes as a ceasefire previously announced by Russian authorities is set to expire at midnight on May 10-11. This expiration heightens fears of renewed hostilities in the region, particularly as tensions continue to escalate.
