EU warns Moscow as Russian strikes target Ukrainian energy grid
European Union officials warned Moscow against aggression on EU soil as Russian drone strikes targeted Ukraine's energy grid and Kyiv overnight.
Russian forces launched a new wave of drone strikes targeting Kyiv and Ukraine's energy infrastructure overnight, injuring at least one person. The attacks follow Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's speech at the United Nations General Assembly. In response to recent Russian assaults, Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian petroleum facilities have caused domestic fuel supply disruptions in Russia.
Meanwhile, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen declared that the European Union "will not tolerate attacks" on member states. The statement follows German authorities identifying two suspects with ties to Moscow in connection with explosive drone incidents in Leipzig. Von der Leyen reaffirmed the bloc's readiness to defend its territory against foreign aggression.
