Sirens were heard wailing in Kyiv as Russia attacked military and infrastructure targets across Ukraine
Ukraine forces push offensive in eastKYIV, June 20 - Russia on Tuesday struck at military and infrastructure targets in Ukraine's capital Kyiv and across other parts of the country, including western areas far from the front lines, Ukrainian officials said.
Kyiv says it has already recaptured 113 square km of land from Russian forces. But the latest strikes showed that Russia was well capable of waging war beyond the southern and eastern front lines. But a "critically important facility" was struck in Lviv, far from the front lines and around 70 km from the border with Poland, regional governor Maksym Kozytskiy said. He gave no other details."However, the main direction of attack by Iranian drones was the Kyiv region. More than two dozen Shaheds were destroyed here," it said on Telegram.
Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu said Moscow had information that Ukraine was planning to strike Russian-controlled Crimea with longer-range U.S. and British missiles and warned Russia would retaliate if that happened.
