The European Council President Charles Michel has condemned Russia's "attrocious" airstrike on a DIY store in Kharkiv, Ukraine.
"The Russian strike on a Kharkiv supermarket is atrocious," Michel said on X.
While Michel mentions a supermarket, the site has been described as the "Epicentre hypermarket" in reporting, possibly leading to confusion.
"Russia's efforts to terrorize Ukrainian civilians as part of its war of aggression against Ukraine are criminal," he added.
"Together, we can stop Russia's brutal attacks. We need to urgently advance on a comprehensive air defence solution for Ukraine."
