European leaders have strongly condemned Russia after a missile strike in Ukraine's Sumy killed at least 34 civilians and wounded 117, branding it a war crime and a mockery of efforts for peace led by the U.S.
Launching two ballistic missiles on Palm Sunday, Russia targeted civilians, leading to allegations of using cluster munitions and demonstrating a dismissive stance towards ceasefire talks.
The attack has prompted fresh calls from the European Union for stringent sanctions against Russia, with leaders stressing the need to force a change in Moscow's aggressive tactics.
