A video has surfaced online of people queueing at a train station and airport in a bid to flee Ukraine after Russia’s attack.
Recall that Naija News reported that Russia on Thursday morning announced that it has destroyed Ukrainian military airbases and its air defence systems.
Naija News reports that this was made known by Russia’s defence ministry.
“Military infrastructure at Ukrainian army air bases has been rendered out of action,” the defence ministry said in a statement. 
The Ministry added that Kyiv’s air defence systems were also “eliminated”.
This is coming hours after Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a military offensive against Ukraine to defend separatists in the east of the country.
Naija News reports that the Russian President made the announcement in a surprised televised statement on Thursday.
“I have made the decision of a military operation,” Putin who has seen his country hit by multiple sanctions from the west said.
The state of affairs has left residents of Ukraine in fear as they are now seeking escape routes to ensure their safety.
Citizens and foreigner nationals are currently at the airport en masse trying to leave the country.
However, flights are grounded as Ukraine fears their planes might be a target for Russian missiles.
