"On the eve of European defense and foreign ministers meeting for the first time since the summer break to discuss how to increase military aid to Ukraine and further pressure Russia with new sanctions, Russian missiles fell again on the Ukrainian capital on Thursday, killing at least 21 people and causing damage to a shopping mall, residential buildings, and the headquarters of the European delegation."
"This attack reinforces the European premise in the face of the whims of Donald Trump's United States that Russian President Vladimir Putin has no intention of halting the war he launched more than three years ago. The attack on Kyiv, the EU's High Representative for Foreign and Security Policy Kaja Kallas said on social media Thursday, shows a deliberate choice to escalate and mock the peace efforts."
Russian missiles struck Kyiv ahead of a meeting of European defense and foreign ministers, killing at least 21 people and damaging a shopping mall, residential buildings, and the European delegation headquarters. European officials described the strike as a deliberate escalation that mocks peace efforts. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen condemned the attack and joined other leaders in seeking security guarantees for Ukraine during a recent White House summit, where Washington offered a vague commitment. European sources noted US involvement in current discussions for the first time this term. European leaders favor increased pressure and new sanctions on Russia to counter delays and escalation.
