A White House spokesman said an attack of this magnitude could not be planned in a few days.
Kirby could not say whether dictator Putin finally changed his strategy from a losing war to a campaign to undermine the morale of civilians and cause devastating damage to Ukrainian cities and infrastructure. At the same time, he suggested that this could be a trend that is now gradually gaining momentum.
