Josep Borrell spends morning in shelter during air raid in Kyiv
The High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, began his Monday morning on Nov. 11 in a shelter in his visit to Kyiv as Russia launched another missile attack.
Borrell arrived in Kyiv on November 9 for his fifth visit since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion and his last as the EU's top diplomat.
“Starting my day in Kyiv in a shelter as Russia carries out another missile strike,” Borrell wrote on X.
He noted that this has been the daily reality for Ukrainians since the full-scale Russian invasion began.
At 6:52 a.m., an air raid alert was declared across Ukraine due to the takeoff of Russian MiG-31K aircraft and the threat of missile launches from Tu-95MS strategic bombers over the Caspian Sea. The alert lasted until 9:00 a.m.
Overnight, Kyiv's air defenses detected and intercepted around a dozen Russian drones through various means, with the air raid in the capital lasting four and a half hours.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
