Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has spoken to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, warning him that long-range strikes against Kiev are imminent, while reiterating the "recommendation" that foreigners be immediately evacuated from the Ukrainian capital.

Moscow will launch a campaign of "systematic attacks" against the Ukrainian capital, targeting military-industrial facilities, command centers and other locations scattered around Kiev.

Russia's top diplomat relayed the information to Rubio on the direct orders of President Vladimir Putin, the ministry said in a statement.

Lavrov also drew his counterpart's attention to the "recommendation" issued by the Foreign Ministry in anticipation of the upcoming campaign, urging all foreign countries, including the US, "to ensure the evacuation of their diplomatic personnel and other citizens from the Ukrainian capital," she added.
