The European Union has condemned Russia’s missile strikes on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities that killed civilians and damaged infrastructure. The indiscriminate targeting of civilians amounts to a “war crime”, Peter Stano, a spokesperson for the European Commission told a news briefing on Monday. "They are barbaric and cowardly attacks," he said as Russian missiles continued to rain down on major cities across all Ukraine. The Russian military launched a wave of missile attacks on Ukrainian cities in retaliation to an explosion over the weekend that damaged the Kerch bridge linking Crimea to Russia. The missile strikes in Kyiv and other cities in the north and west were the first since Russian forces withdrew from the north of Ukraine in April.
