Fox News
NATO announced Monday that it will send fighter jets and ships to eastern Europe as tension with the alliance and Russia hit a fever pitch due to the possibility of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The moves come as tension in the region is increasing by the day.
The British Embassy in Ukraine said it will withdraw some staffers from Kyiv in response to the growing threat from Russia—just a day after U.S. officials told Fox News that the State Department ordered families of U.S. Embassy personnel in the city to begin evacuating.
Melinda Simmons, the British ambassador to Ukraine, followed posted on Twitter that the embassy is open and "we will be continuing with our work alongside [Ukrainian flag] partners."
