The EU has condemned Russia's repeated attacks on Ukraine this week, particularly on energy infrastructure, which have deprived citizens of basic utilities such as electricity and heating. These are war crimes, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell said on Monday, UNN reports.

The EU condemns the repeated attacks against Ukraine over the past week. Russia has used nearly 190 missiles to target civilians and destroy energy infrastructure, and deprive ordinary citizens of basic electricity and heating systems. These are war crimes

Addendum

US Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink noted that over the past five days, Russia has launched hundreds of missiles and drones against Ukraine. Against this backdrop, she called for no delay in providing military assistance to Ukraine.

On March 25, Kyiv suffered the third missile attack by Russia in 5 days. The Ukrainian Air Force reported the destruction of two ballistic missiles fired by the enemy from the occupied Crimea. According to the head of the National Security and Defense Council's Central Intelligence Center , the Russians used a Zircon missile during today's attack on Kyiv.
