On February 24, the Ukrainian Embassy in Turkey called on Ankara to support Kiev "at this difficult time."

The message of the diplomatic mission on the official Twitter reads: “The Russian Federation has started a war against Ukraine. Bombed peaceful Ukrainian cities. We call on our strategic partner Turkey and the friendly Turkish people to support us in this difficult time.”

In turn, the Russian Defense Ministry stated that the country's armed forces do not carry out any missile, air or artillery strikes on Ukrainian cities.

According to the military department, high-precision weapons disable military infrastructure, air defense facilities, military airfields and aviation of the Ukrainian army.

Nothing threatens the civilian population of Ukraine, assured the Russian Defense Ministry.

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed the citizens of Russia and Ukraine early in the morning on February 24 about the situation in Ukraine.
