Residents in Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital, were told to “make Molotov cocktails” on Friday as they hid in makeshift shelters and subway stations, awaiting a Russian assault.

“Make Molotov cocktails, neutralize the occupier!” the Defense Ministry wrote on Twitter, while local authorities told people in the northwestern Obolon to stay off the streets due to “active hostilities” that were approaching.
