Kyiv, Ukraine: Ukraine said Friday that Russia’s overnight fatal drone and missile attack — including with the hypersonic Oreshnik missile — posed a threat to Europe and was a “test” for Kyiv’s allies.
“Such a strike close to (the) EU and NATO border is a grave threat to the security on the European continent and a test for the transatlantic community. We demand strong responses to Russia’s reckless actions,” Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga wrote on social media.
