Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha responded Saturday to what he described as Russia's latest attack on international businesses operating in Ukraine, according to Ukrinform.
The comments followed a reported double strike on a logistics facility in Ukraine that serves McDonald's, one of several multinational companies that continue to operate in the country despite the ongoing war.
Sybiha said the attack reflected a broader pattern in which Russia was targeting international commercial operations in Ukraine, arguing that Moscow wants "the whole world to pay for its terror."
Ukrainian officials have repeatedly pointed to such strikes as evidence that Russian attacks extend beyond military targets to civilian and commercial infrastructure connected to international companies.
Neither Russian officials nor McDonald's had publicly commented on the specific incident referenced by Sybiha, according to the available report.
