Following the major escalation of bombing Russia with long-range missiles on Tuesday, the U.S. has closed its embassy in Kiev, Ukraine on Wednesday, in anticipation of a counterattack by Russia.
“In the last few minutes the United States has announced it’s closing its embassy in Kiev today, instructing employees there to shelter,” Sky News reported Wednesday. “That’s after receiving, what it describes as specific information of a potentially significant air attack.”

Notably, Ukraine launched a ‘significantly significant air attack’ against Russia on Tuesday, an air attack that allows Russia (if it so chooses) to deploy nuclear weapons against the U.S., NATO member states and Ukraine.
Ukraine has ‘no more than 50‘ of such long-range missiles. It has reportedly only deployed five so far, on Tuesday.
Outside of missiles, the Westâs escalation continued on Wednesday, as it is reported that Biden is sending landmines to Ukraine, weapons that often blow off the legs of innocent civilians who happen to accidentally walk over them for years into the future.
