Spain, Italy, and Greece have joined the United States in closing their embassies in Kyiv following warnings of a potential air attack on the Ukrainian capital, Ukraine’s state broadcaster, Suspilne, reported.
The U.S. Embassy earlier announced that it had received “specific information” about a possible significant air attack on Kyiv, prompting its closure.
Suspilne stated that the intelligence suggested a combined drone and missile assault on the capital, though it clarified that the threat is not linked to Russia’s recent adjustments to its nuclear doctrine.
The closure of embassies by multiple nations highlights growing concerns over the escalating security risks in Ukraine, particularly in Kyiv.
No further details have been disclosed about the timing or scale of the anticipated attack. However, the coordinated response underscores the severity of the threat perceived by these nations.
Authorities in Kyiv have urged residents to remain vigilant and adhere to safety protocols amid the heightened alert.
