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

Russian forces launched fresh drone strikes against Kyiv overnight, injuring a civilian following Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's address to the United Nations General Assembly, where he referred to Russian leadership as "the patient zero who wanted the war."

In response, Russia's defense ministry declared a new campaign specifically targeting Ukraine's energy network. Concurrently, Ukrainian forces escalated long-range strikes against Russian oil facilities, causing domestic supply disruptions that forced Moscow to import fuel.

In Germany, authorities identified two suspects with ties to Moscow regarding explosive drones found in Leipzig. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen responded firmly, stating, "We do not tolerate attacks on EU soil, ready to respond."
