Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna issued a statement following Russia's latest airstrikes against Ukraine, urging the international community to increase pressure on Russia.

Tsahkna stated that Russia had launched 39 missiles and more than 120 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) overnight, targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure. He reported that residential buildings in Kyiv were damaged in the attacks, leaving 5 people dead and 20 injured. Emphasizing that the latest attacks demonstrate Russia's unwillingness to change its position, Tsahkna said:

"This attack is yet another clear reminder that Russia has no intention of changing course or honoring an energy ceasefire. On the contrary, it continues to escalate its campaign of terror. These actions cannot go unpunished."

Stressing that impunity can never be an option, Estonian Foreign Minister Tsahkna called for diplomatic isolation, travel restrictions, and tighter sanctions. He also urged the full use of frozen Russian assets for Ukraine's benefit and reaffirmed that Estonia's support for Ukraine would remain unwavering.
