Lviv mayor after Russia strike near oil depot: 'The aggressor wants to say hello to President Biden'
"This is now the second strike in the past week," Lviv Mayor Andriy Sadovyi after Russian air strikes hit near an oil depot on Saturday. "The strikes are very clearly aimed at infrastructure."
Sadovyi added, "I think that with today's strikes, the aggressor wants to say hello to President Biden, who is currently in Poland."
The strikes came as President Biden visits Ukrainian refugees in Warsaw, Poland just over 240 miles from Lviv.
Russian forces hit the western city for the first time since the invasion began more than four weeks ago on March 18 when an aircraft repair plant was hit outside the Lviv airport – roughly four miles from the city center.

Biden says Putin 'cannot remain in power', White House walks back
President Biden ended his speech in Poland with a seeming call for regime change as he declared that "for God's sake, this man cannot remain in power.
Shortly after Biden's address however, the White House denied that Biden was calling for regime change.
The President’s point was that Putin cannot be allowed to exercise power over his neighbors or the region. He was not discussing Putin’s power in Russia, or regime change," a White House official told Fox News Digital shortly after the speech concluded.
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki previously insisted the White House is "not advocating for killing the leader of a foreign country or regime change."
"That is not the policy of the United States," she said on March 4.
Biden warns Putin: 'Don't even think about moving onto one single inch of NATO territory'
In a rousing speech in Poland to a mix of Polish citizens and Ukrainian refugees, President Biden underscored NATO's role in the war in Ukraine.
"Putin can and must end this war," Biden said, stressing that there is "no doubt" that Russia's military effort has played out as "a strategic failure."
Biden also insisted that NATO is a defensive alliance that has "never sought the demise of Russia," but reiterated the "sacred obligation" of all NATO members to defend "each and every inch of NATO territory."
"This is the task of our time, the task of this generation," Biden said. "Let's remember the hammer blow that brought down the Berlin Wall, the might that lifted the Iron Curtain were not the words of a single leader but the people of Europe who fought for decades to free themselves."
