  • European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, European Council President António Costa, and Finland's President Alexander Stubb arrived in Kyiv on Tuesday, alongside seven prime ministers and three foreign ministers, in support of Ukraine's fourth anniversary of invasion.

  • Upon arrival, Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, was greeted by Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga, who handed her yellow-and-blue flowers, and the visit began with a memorial service in Independence Square on Feb. 24, 2026.
  • The United Kingdom announced new military and humanitarian aid on Tuesday, EU buildings in Brussels and Strasbourg were lit in Ukraine's colours, and the Coalition of the Willing meeting followed the commemorations.
  • A major report warns the human toll could reach 2 million by spring, while North Korea, Iran and China back Russia and drones now cause most battlefield casualties.
