Details
According to the information, the agency has designated some Ukrainian territories as lower-risk regions due to their air defense capabilities and remoteness from active combat zones.
The State Department has downgraded the risk from level four (do not travel) to level three (consider traveling) for several regions of Ukraine: Volyn, Lviv, Zakarpattia, Ivano-Frankivsk, Chernivtsi, Ternopil, Rivne, Khmelnytsky, and Zhytomyr.
At the same time, the Department strongly advises all U.S. citizens to:
Closely monitor U.S. government communications and local and international media for information on changing security conditions and warnings to shelter in place. The security situation in Ukraine remains unpredictable
This is the first time the agency has made such changes since the beginning of the full-scale invasion.
