Foreign affairs council discusses Ukraine after another night of heavy Russian attacks as Volodymyr Zelenskyy visits UK

EU foreign ministers are meeting this morning in Brussels to talk about the bloc’s position on Ukraine and Russia and the worsening crisis in the Middle East.

The foreign affairs council kicks off what some dubbed a “super week” in European – and not only – politics, with the Nato summit in The Hague and the European Council summit later this week.

And there’s plenty to talk about.

Today’s meeting starts with Ukraine, after another night of heavy Russian attacks with 352 drones and 16 missiles reported by the country’s air force, mostly targeting Kyiv. At least six were killed, and over a dozen were injured.
