Russia has launched a major invasion of Ukraine. Here’s the latest. War in Ukraine The most significant European war in almost 80 years has begun.

The attacks spanned much of the country, far beyond the border provinces where there has been sporadic fighting between the nations for years. Ukraine’s government called it “a full-scale attack from multiple directions.” Blasts could be heard in Kyiv, the capital, as well as more than a dozen other cities. At an airport outside Kyiv, rocket attacks targeted parked Ukrainian fighter jets. In the southern port city of Odessa, Russian troops arrived from the sea. In Lutsk — in the northwest corner of Ukraine, closer to Poland than Russia — explosions were also reported.

Red markings denote places where attacks have been reported.The New York Times Ukrainians rushed to take shelter in bus and subway stations. In Kyiv, people packed up their cars and waited in long gas lines on their way out of the city. In eastern Ukraine, lines formed at A.T.M.s and gas stations. “It’s panic, don’t you see?” Yevheni Balai told The Times’s Michael Schwirtz, pointing to a line of anxious Ukrainians standing outside a closed bank in Slovyansk, in the eastern part of the country. “They’ve gotten exactly what they wanted, the ones on the other side, panic and destabilization,” he said. “We’ve lived eight years of unending war,” a woman who runs a blood bank in eastern Ukraine [told The Times](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRj-fYSP0TmaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMi8wMi8yNC93b3JsZC9ldXJvcGUvZWFzdGVybi11a3JhaW5lLXNjZW5lcy1ydXNzaWEuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD05JmVtYz1lZGl0X25uXzIwMjIwMjI0Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTU0MTM5Jm5sPXRoZS1tb3JuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD04Mzc5OSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYhYScRdiYHNkOFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA). “There’s nowhere to run.

But Putin has lied repeatedly in the run-up to the invasion, and it was unclear whether those comments had any meaning. - Russia’s Defense Ministry claimed to have disabled all of Ukraine’s air defenses and airbases by about 8 a.m. local time, according to Anton Troianovski, The Times’s Moscow bureau chief. (Ukraine is seven hours ahead of New York.) - Putin warned other countries that interfering with the invasion would bring about “such consequences as you have never before experienced in your history.” Some analysts wondered whether that line amounted to a threat to use nuclear weapons. - Shortly before 7 a.m. local time, Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, declared martial law and asked people to remain at home and stay calm. - Ukrainian forces have shot down six Russian fighters and a helicopter during intense battles to maintain control over cities, a senior Ukrainian military official said. Ukrainian troops also claim to have repelled, for the time being, Russian advances on two major cities: Chernihiv, in the north near Belarus, and Kharkiv, in the northeast close to Russia’s border. - President Biden condemned the “unprovoked and unjustified” attack, calling it “a premeditated war that will bring a catastrophic loss of life and human suffering.” He said he [would announce “severe sanctions”](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRj-fYSP0TnaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMi8wMi8yNC93b3JsZC9ldXJvcGUvYmlkZW4tcnVzc2lhLXVrcmFpbmUtc2FuY3Rpb25zLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIyMDIyNCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD01NDEzOSZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9ODM3OTkmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmIWEnEXYmBzZDhSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) against Russia today. - Both Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill called for the U.S. to support Ukraine. “If Putin does not pay a devastating price for this transgression, then our own security will soon be at risk” Senator Chris Murphy, a Connecticut Democrat, said. Senator Ted Cruz, a Texas Republican, said, “The U.S. will stand with our Ukrainian allies,” with continued aid, and would hold Putin accountable.
