Boris Johnson condemns Putin after Russian drone attack near miss

Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestyle(AFP/Getty)Former prime minister Boris Johnson has condemned Vladimir Putin after a Russian drone targeted a stationary passenger train directly behind the train he was travelling on while returning from a security conference in Kyiv. Mr Johnson was alerted to prepare for a potential evacuation at 5am on Sunday in Volyn, near the Polish border, though he was ultimately not delayed and no casualties were reported by Ukrainian Railways. Following the incident, Mr Johnson criticised the attack as random and senseless, urging Western nations to urgently provide Ukraine with the air defence systems required to protect civilians. He further called on the UK and international allies to unfreeze Russian financial assets to fund Ukraine, highlighting around £10 billion currently held in London and over €140 billion in Belgium. Ukrainian foreign minister Andrii Sybiha condemned the strikes near the border town of Yahodyn, warning that Russian aggression is knocking directly on the doors of the European Union and NATO.
