In the Sumy region, 15 people were wounded and one person was killed in Russian shelling over the past 24 hours

Over the past 24 hours, Russian troops have carried out heavy shelling of border and frontline areas in the Sumy region, resulting in the death of an elderly woman and injuries of varying severity to 15 other civilians

The occupiers opened fire on residential neighborhoods and critical infrastructure, causing widespread destruction

In total, nearly 60 enemy shelling incidents were recorded in the region, with 35 settlements in 20 territorial communities of the region coming under fire. 

As a result of the enemy strikes, private and multi-family residential buildings, civilian vehicles, non-residential premises, and critical infrastructure were significantly damaged. 

The tense security situation forced residents to remain in shelters for practically the entire day—the air raid alert in the region lasted continuously for 20 hours and 13 minutes.

The military administration released detailed data on casualties by local community. 

“An elderly woman was killed, and 15 other people were injured. Konotop community—a 78-year-old woman was killed; an 8-year-old boy, women aged 41 and 75, and a 44-year-old man were injured.

Khutir-Mykhailivska community — a 56-year-old man was injured,” according to an official statement from the Regional Military Administration.

This was reported by the Sumy Regional Military Administration on its official Telegram channel.
