Russia and Ukraine Vow to Escalate Attacks

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced plans to double attacks on Russian oil refineries in response to Russia's efforts to force civilians to leave Kyiv, while Russia vowed to escalate strikes on the Ukrainian capital. Zelenskyy described Russia's recent escalation against civilian targets in Kyiv as a "new doctrine" aimed at pressuring people to flee the city and others. He cited documents showing Russia permits attacks on infrastructure, roads, schools, and hospitals to achieve this goal. Russia's defense ministry responded on Sunday, stating it will increase attacks on Kyiv and other regions following Zelenskyy's remarks, according to the state-owned Tass news agency.
