The European Union is increasing pressure on Russia after Berlin accused Moscow of being behind a foiled drone attack on Germany's Leipzig/Halle Airport, EU foreign affairs chief Kaja Kallas said on Wednesday. Kallas stated that the EU is drafting new proposals to strengthen sanctions enforcement and advance further sanctions, including preparing to sanction an additional 1,600 individuals and entities linked to Russia's military sector. She also noted that EU foreign ministers broadly support banning former Russian military personnel from entering the EU and potentially tightening visa restrictions for Russian tourists. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen also said that authorities are examining how to "cut deeper into Russia's war funding" and called the attack a "new escalation on European Union territory." Russia has denied involvement in the August 4 attack.
