EU's Borrell Says Russia Committing 'Massive War Crime' In Mariupol

Josep Borrell, the European Union's top diplomat, says Russia is committing a "massive war crime" with its attack on the southern Ukrainian port city of Mariupol, which has been besieged for weeks.

"What's happening now in Mariupol is a massive war crime, destroying everything, bombarding and killing everybody," Borrell said at the start of a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels.

The 27-nation bloc will discuss possible new sanctions on Russia, including an oil embargo and possibly cutting more Russian banks from the SWIFT financial messaging system.
