Moscow: Russian military on Wednesday threatened to attack the Ukrainian command center in the capital Kyiv if Ukrainian forces continued to attack the Russian region.
“We saw the efforts of Ukrainian forces to carry out sabotage and attack Russian regions,” the Russian defense ministry said in a statement. “If such a case continues, the Russian armed forces will attack the decision-making center, including in Kyiv.”

Since President Vladimir Putin sent troops to Ukraine on February 24, Moscow accused Kyiv forced the attack area in South Russia.

Earlier this month, Russian forces retreated from the northern region of Kyiv and now focused their efforts to capture more areas in East Ukraine.

The Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed that his troops now have full control over the port in the City of Mariupol.

The ministry added that Ukrainian forces and members of Battalion Azov were surrounded and “lost the opportunity to escape”.

The Azov battalion member has fiercely against Russia in Mariupol, which is located in the southeast of the country between Crimea occupied by Russia and pro-Russian separatist areas in Ukraine.
