On Friday, Russian forces carried out an air strike that damaged an apartment building in the Ukrainian city of Sumy. Two people were killed in the attack.

Sumy is located in northeastern Ukraine, near the border with Russia, and has repeatedly come under Russian air attacks in recent months. The region lies within direct range of Russian artillery and aviation, leaving civilians particularly exposed to such strikes.

No further details about the victims or possible injuries from the attack have been made available at this time.
