The EU, led by top diplomat Kaja Kallas, condemned Russia for repeatedly violating Ukrainian airspace with drones and military jets as part of ongoing aggression. Since August, Russia launched over 30 strikes on Russian energy sites, including a large fire at an oil depot in occupied Crimea. A Russian drone attack in southern Ukraine killed a married couple. These incidents are viewed as dangerous escalation by the EU and Western allies. Kallas emphasized support for supplying Ukraine with long-range US Tomahawk missiles to weaken Russia. US President Donald Trump also warned Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin about consequences if Russia does not end its invasion. Moscow threatened a major escalation if Ukraine receives Tomahawks. The EU calls for turning economic power into military deterrence amid renewed Russian infrastructure attacks ahead of winter.
