The European Union (EU) has accused Russia of further escalating war against Ukraine.

The EU made the accusation in a statement on Friday.

โ€œThis week marks another escalation in Russiaโ€™s illegal war of aggression against Ukraine with increasingly indiscriminate and bloody shelling of civilian areas,โ€™โ€™ the spokesman for EU Foreign Affairs Chief Josep Borrell said in Brussels.

He cited missile and drone attacks on Odessa and Kiev as examples in addition to a large supermarket, a railway station and a petrol station hit with heavy artillery in the Kherson Region.

โ€œThe latest of these Russiaโ€™s barbarities killed over 20 people and injured almost 50 in Kherson, all of them civilians.

โ€œThis reckless killing of civilians and destruction of civilian infrastructure must stop immediately,โ€™โ€™ the spokesman said.

He said that the EU remained committed to holding the perpetrators accountable. (dpa/NAN)
