radio news

The EU Delegation to Ukraine in Kyiv was hit by Russian airstrikes on Thursday, according to a senior EU official.

“The EU Delegation in Kyiv was damaged by today’s Russian strikes on civilian areas,” European Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos wrote on X.

“I strongly condemn these brutal attacks, a clear sign that Russia rejects peace & chooses terror,” Kos added. “Our full solidarity goes to EU staff, their families, & all Ukrainians enduring this aggression.”

Russia has escalated its airstrikes across Ukraine in recent months despite growing Western efforts to reach a diplomatic settlement to the war.

This is a developing story.
