Russian attacks on the Sumy region
The Russian military targets the Sumy region and the city of Sumy every day, using drones, rockets, and air bombs.
For example, last night, Russian forces struck civilian infrastructure in the Kovpakivskyi district of Sumy. Three people were injured and hospitalized.
Today, Russian forces carried out another attack on critical infrastructure in the Sumy region. This left part of the Sumy community without power.
