Later, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha responded to the Russian strikes on the Ukrainian-Polish border.
"Russia's barbaric strikes near the Ukrainian-Polish border in Yahodyn are not merely a continuation of attacks on Ukraine's state borders. This is Putin's terror, which is 'knocking' directly on the doors of the EU and NATO. The Russian barbarians are already at your gates, dear partners," he emphasized.
