EU warns Moscow over Leipzig drone incidents as Russian strikes hit Kyiv

The EU warns Moscow over German drone incidents, while Russian strikes target Kyiv and Ukraine escalates attacks on Russian energy infrastructure.
Russian forces conducted fresh overnight drone strikes on Kyiv, injuring a civilian following Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's address to the UN General Assembly. The attack comes as Moscow announced a renewed campaign targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure ahead of winter. In response to recent escalations, Ukrainian forces intensified long-range strikes against Russian oil facilities, leading to domestic fuel shortages that forced Russia to import petrol. Meanwhile, European security concerns escalated after German authorities identified two suspects linked to Moscow in connection with explosive drone incidents near critical infrastructure in Leipzig. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen reacted firmly, stating the European Union "will not tolerate attacks on EU soil" and remains prepared to respond.
