US embassy in Kyiv warns of 'potential significant air attack'

New Indian Express  

WASHINGTON: The US embassy in Kyiv warned Wednesday of a "potential significant air attack" and shuttered its doors, following Russia's vow to respond after Ukraine fired longer-range US missiles at its territory for the first time. "The U.S. Embassy in Kyiv has received specific information of a potential significant air attack on November 20," it said in a message on its website. A senior Ukrainian official told AFP that a strike on Russia's Bryansk region on Tuesday "was carried out by ATACMS missiles" a reference to the US-supplied Army Tactical Missile System. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the attack showed Western countries wanted to "escalate" the conflict.
