A Russian airstrike on a large Ukrainian military facility near the border with Poland, a NATO member, on Sunday killed 35 people and wounded 134, a local Ukrainian official said, as other officials reported intense Russian attacks around the country.

The incident was just 25 km from the Polish border. U.S. President Joe Biden has said NATO would defend every inch of its territory if Russia's invasion of Ukraine spills over into member states of the Western defense alliance.

Lviv Deputy Mayor Andriy Moskalenko appealed to allies to impose a no-fly-zone over Ukraine.

Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said the U.S. and its allies were repositioning forces along NATO’s eastern flank, "to make sure that we can defend every inch of NATO's territory if we need to."

Russia's invasion of Ukraine, launched by Putin on Feb. 24, has sent more than 2.5 million people fleeing across borders and trapped hundreds of thousands in besieged cities.
