European Union warns against attacks on its soil as Russia and Ukraine trade drone strikes

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has stated that the bloc will not tolerate hostile actions on member state territory, warning of a potential response following the identification of two suspects linked to Moscow over explosive drones in Leipzig.

Meanwhile, Russian forces launched additional overnight drone attacks against Kyiv, injuring one resident. The strikes followed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's address to the United Nations General Assembly, in which he described Russian President Vladimir Putin as "patient zero who wanted the war." Simultaneously, Russia's defense ministry confirmed a campaign aimed at Ukrainian energy infrastructure, while Ukraine expanded retaliatory strikes against Russian petroleum facilities and oil refineries.
