'It Will Be Loud': Dmitry Kuleba Advises Some Kyiv Residents to Leave the Capital

After statements from the Russian side regarding retaliation for strikes by the Ukrainian Armed Forces against civilians and civilian infrastructure, expectations of serious destruction are growing in Kyiv. Former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba issued such a warning and urged residents of the capital to prepare psychologically now, while advising some people to temporarily leave the city. "It will be loud. If someone's nerves can no longer handle it, if mentally they cannot cope anymore, I completely understand that — everyone is exhausted. Then you need to take a break from living in Kyiv. I urge everyone to remain attentive and follow safety rules,” Kuleba said.
