French President Emmanuel Macron and the European Union’s foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas on Sunday condemned Russia’s use of a nuclear-capable Oreshnik hypersonic ballistic missile in its massive overnight attack on Ukraine. While Macron said the strikes targeting civilians signalled “the dead end of Russia’s war of aggression”, Kallas accused Moscow of engaging in “reckless nuclear brinkmanship”.
Russia pounded Kyiv with a massive missile and drone attack that killed four people, authorities said Sunday, after President Vladimir Putin threatened retaliation for strikes in Russian-occupied eastern Ukraine.
