Ukraine – Waves of strikes on Kyiv Ukraine Conflicts Déclaration On : July 06th 2026 France strongly condemns the new waves of strikes that pelted the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv overnight on July 5. By launching another massive attack with hundreds of drones and missiles, Russia is once again guilty of violating international humanitarian law, causing at least 13 deaths in Ukraine by deliberately targeting residential neighborhoods that are home to civilians. On this day of mourning, France reaffirms its support of the country and people of Ukraine. France will continue to tirelessly support Ukraine until a just and lasting peace is achieved.
