Russia strikes EU delegation building in Kyiv

On August 28, 2025, Russian forces launched a large-scale missile and drone attack on Kyiv, severely damaging the EU delegation building and killing at least 14 people including children.
This attack followed ongoing stalled peace negotiations and came after Russia fired 629 drones and missiles in one night, marking the second-highest barrage of the war.
The strikes hit residential apartments, office buildings, and at least 20 locations in seven Kyiv districts, causing extensive civilian casualties and infrastructure damage.
Leaders condemned the attack: Emmanuel Macron called it terror and barbarism; Zelenskyy called for strong new sanctions; and Antonio Costa said Russia’s aggression strengthens resolve to support Ukraine.
The attack intensified calls for international action against Russia and prompted the EU to summon Russia’s envoy, signaling heightened tensions and unresolved conflict risks.
