"Yet another cruel and devastating series of Russian strikes against civilians in Ukraine," Costa said on social media. "The EU will continue to increase the pressure on Russia and to support Ukraine until a just and lasting peace is achieved. We call on all our international partners to do the same."
The strike on Thursday at the Dnipro train station hit a platform "where a regular commuter train and a regular passenger train were standing", Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky said.
