Russia has raised the risk of further escalation with NATO powers, warning it will treat arms shipments to Ukraine as 'legitimate targets' for military action as its forces start to expand their offensive near the northwestern city of Lviv.
Kyiv and Lviv, Ukraine Russia expanded its offensive to western Ukraine on Sunday, firing missiles near the city of Lviv and hitting a large military base close to the Polish border, reportedly killing dozens of people. The attack came the day after the Kremlin threatened to attack Western weapons shipments to Ukraine.
As the invasion runs into its third week, the northwest city of Lviv has largely been spared from Russia's relentless bombardment. The picturesque city has instead become ground zero for displaced Ukrainians. Hundreds of thousands of them have flooded into the city in search of relative safety, with many using it as a stopping point before making their way to the Polish border about 43 miles away.
