Strong Russian warnings in preparation for a major field escalation in response to the Kyiv attacks

Strong Russian warnings appear to be in preparation for a major field escalation, which Moscow said was a response to Kiev’s terrorist attacks against civilians. The Russian Foreign Ministry stressed that foreign nationals and diplomats should not stay in or travel to Ukraine in conjunction with the Russian army achieving more field progress at a time when some Western voices acknowledge that Russia is conducting the war well, which further weakens the position of the Kiev regime and the Europeans.

What will the Russian response look like? What are the cards Ukraine and the West have in the face of successive economic and military crises?
