EU condemns Russian escalation of war against Ukraine
The European Union (EU), on Friday, accused Russia of escalating the war in Ukraine to higher altitude.
The spokesman for EU Foreign Affairs Chief, Josep Borrell, was cited to have said in Brussels in a statement by the Union, on Friday, that, “this week marks another escalation in Russia’s illegal war of aggression against Ukraine with increasingly indiscriminate and bloody shelling of civilian areas.”
The spokesman cited missile and drone attacks on Odessa and Kiev as examples in addition to a large supermarket, a railway station and a petrol station hit with heavy artillery in the Kherson Region.
According to him, “The latest of these Russia’s barbarities killed over 20 people and injured almost 50 in Kherson, all of them civilians.
“This reckless killing of civilians and destruction of civilian infrastructure must stop immediately.”
He maintained that the EU remains committed to holding the perpetrators accountable.
