Russia warned Monday of further strikes on Kyiv and urged foreign nationals to leave the Ukrainian capital after conducting one of its largest aerial assaults on the city over the weekend.

The Russian Foreign Ministry said additional "systemic strikes" were planned and advised foreign citizens, including diplomatic personnel, to evacuate quickly. The ministry told residents to avoid military and government facilities, citing Friday's Ukrainian drone strike on a college dormitory in Russian-controlled Starobilsk as justification for the escalation.

Sunday's bombardment killed two people and wounded at least 91 others in Kyiv, according to city officials. The attack included Russia's hypersonic Oreshnik ballistic missile, which can carry multiple warheads and travel at speeds up to 10 times faster than sound. The assault damaged buildings across the city, including areas near government offices, residential buildings, schools and a market.

The escalation has heightened international concern about Belarus potentially providing additional support for Russia's invasion. French President Emmanuel Macron spoke with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko on Sunday in their first call since the war began, warning against allowing Belarus to be drawn deeper into the conflict. Belarus previously allowed Russian forces to use its territory during the initial invasion in February 2022.

Belarusian opposition leader Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya visited Kyiv on Monday, criticizing the Lukashenko government for continuing "hybrid attacks, nuclear blackmail and threats to the entire region" rather than improving relations with the European Union. Russia and Belarus conducted joint nuclear drills last week, raising concerns about opening a new front in northern Ukraine.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha led ambassadors from more than 70 countries on a tour of the strike sites Monday, urging increased international pressure on Moscow and enhanced air defense support for Ukraine. The attacks come as Ukraine faces challenges defending against Russian missiles due to shortages of U.S.-made air defense systems.
