The Italian Embassy in Ukraine recently issued an emergency alert urging its citizens to refrain from traveling to the country. At the same time, the embassy calls on citizens in Ukraine to leave the country as soon as possible.
Today, as for the first time, the explosions were very intense, and the destruction of the regime’s infrastructure was massive. The Russians now hit with great efficiency in terms of the “depth” of their attacks.

At least three waves of attacks were carried out, while Russia sent at least 30 drones from the territory of Belarus only for the Kyiv region. Obviously, the goal of Russia is to scare the inhabitants and create conditions for the maximum evacuation of the population of Kyiv before the start of the ground offensive.

In addition to the psychological shock that drones inflict on the population in densely populated areas, Russia has also targeted a power plant and the main distribution point. It is clear that now they are hitting strategic infrastructures. Several drones hit Ukrenergo facilities, causing a fire at the country’s main electricity supplier. In total, 585 cities and villages are now left without electricity in Ukraine. Everything that moves is destroyed…
