The U.S. State Department announced Monday night that diplomatic employees in Lviv, in western Ukraine, would spend the night in Poland.
Antony J. Blinken, the secretary of state, had earlier relocated U.S. Embassy staff from Kyiv to Lviv, a city near Poland, because of the Russian military buildup around Ukraine.
The agency did not give more details about the latest relocation arrangements, except to say that “our personnel will regularly return to continue their diplomatic work in Ukraine and provide emergency consular services.”
