Zelenskyy reveals that a child is among the dead as EU commissioner condemns ‘brutal attacks’
Russian airstrikes have killed at least twelve people in a succession of attacks on Kyiv overnight and wounded dozens more in the most deadly night raid on the Ukrainian capital for several weeks.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who revealed that a child was among the dead, said the attacks showed that Russia had no intention of negotiating an end the war, despite the recent intervention of US president Donald Trump.
The EU’s enlargement commissioner, Marta Kos, said the EU delegation in Kyiv was also damaged by the strikes.
“I strongly condemn these brutal attacks, a clear sign that Russia rejects peace & chooses terror. Our full solidarity goes to EU staff, their families, & all Ukrainians enduring this aggression,” she said.
