European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell condemned on Sunday the Russian attacks on Ukrainian cities that occurred the day before, APA reports citing Teletrader.

"Russia's inhumane aggression directly targets civilians, include children. There will be no impunity for these crimes. The EU will continue supporting Ukraine for as long as it takes," Borrell wrote on Twitter.

Earlier it became known that Russian troops had shelled the regional capital of Dnipropetrovsk. A residential building was hit, and local media initially reported that 39 people were injured in the attack. However, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said late on Sunday that the death toll so far stood at 30.
