One of the victims of the Russian strike on the funeral procession has died in Sumy. This was reported by Oleg Grigorov, head of the Sumy Regional Military Administration. “Unfortunately, a man who sustained critical injuries as a result of the Russian strike on the funeral procession in Sumy has died in the hospital,” he wrote on Telegram.
According to Grigorov, the identity of the deceased is currently being established. The attack occurred on May 23 on the outskirts of Sumy. A Russian FPV drone struck a funeral procession that was heading to one of the city’s cemeteries. As reported by local authorities, the drone exploded near a bus in the funeral procession. Four people were injured as a result of the strike.
Serhiy Kryvosheyko, head of the Sumy City Military Administration, clarified that the drone was an FPV model, likely fiber-optic. After the strike, all the victims were taken to medical facilities. One of the men was in critical condition, and doctors were fighting to save his life.
Law enforcement agencies and local authorities called the attack cynical, as the strike was aimed specifically at the funeral procession. An investigation into the attack is currently underway. Authorities are also determining the circumstances of the strike and the type of drone used by the Russian military.
