Ukraine says plant in Crimea evacuated, may be pretext for aggression

Ukraine's foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, tweeted on Wednesday that a night shift of the Titan chemicals plant in annexed Crimea had been evacuated from the facility.

He said it was a possible preparation for another staged provocation by Russia, which annexed Crimea in 2014.

"Moscow seems to have no limits in attempts to falsify pretexts for further aggression," he wrote.
