(Reuters) -Russia’s overnight drone and missile attack on Ukraine’s capital damaged the EU delegation’s building in the city, the EU Commission said on Thursday.
The delegation’s staff were safe, EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen wrote on X. She called on Russia to stop its “indiscriminatory attacks on civilian infrastructure and join negotiations for a just and lasting peace”.
The Russian attack killed 10 people in other parts of the city, wounded 38 and damaged buildings across seven districts, Ukrainian officials said.
EU Commissioner Marta Kos said the EU building had been damaged during strikes on civilian areas.
“I strongly condemn these brutal attacks, a clear sign that Russia rejects peace and chooses terror. Our full solidarity goes to EU staff, their families, and all Ukrainians enduring this aggression.”
