Russian occupants have launched missile and air strikes on radio facilities in the Sumy region. As a result, Ukrainian radio and television signals are temporarily unavailable in the region, and there may be interruptions in mobile communications, according to the Sumy Regional Military Administration.

"Broadcasting transmitters in Sumy, Shostka, Bilopillia, and Trostianets are temporarily out of commission," the Sumy Regional Military Administration informs.

As a result of the damage, part of the region's territory is temporarily unable to receive Ukrainian television and radio signals. There may also be interruptions in mobile communications.

The consequences are currently being analyzed and recovery plans are being formed. The city authorities urge people not to panic and resist the enemy's information provocations.

"Switch to alternative means of communication, trust only trusted sources of information," says Volodymyr Artiukh, head of the Sumy Regional Military Administration.

It is worth noting that on the night of March 14, Russian troops also attacked the television infrastructure in the Kharkiv region.
