Zelenskiy warns of impending massive Russian attack on Ukraine

June 20 (Reuters) - President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Saturday that Russian forces were preparing an impending massive attack on Ukraine and ‌warned residents to take special care as Russian strikes in ‌different regions killed at least six people.

"Tonight and in the coming hours, it is especially ​important to pay close attention to air raid warnings," Zelenskiy said in his nightly video address. "The Russians have prepared for a massive attack. Please take care of yourselves."

Russian forces have staged a series of heavy attacks on Kyiv ‌in recent weeks and ⁠in other major cities. Strikes last Monday killed 10 people throughout the country and badly damaged the Pechersk Lavra ⁠monastery, a 1,000-year-old monastery that stands as a symbol of Ukrainian spiritual and cultural heritage.

Zelenskiy has pledged that his military would press on with its campaign ​of medium ​and long-range strikes, focused on the ​oil sector.
