Four in critical condition, one woman dies in surgery after Russian strike on Sumy

According to Ukrinform, Mykola Savchenko, Deputy Director of the Sumy Regional Hospital, shared this information in a comment to Kordon.Media.

“A total of 20 wounded were brought to the regional hospital. The injuries vary — from shrapnel wounds to cuts from shattered glass. Currently, four people are in extremely critical condition. One woman died during surgery — doctors tried to save her, but her wounds were too severe,” Savchenko said.

He also noted that among the injured is a seven-year-old girl.

As previously reported, early on June 3, Russian forces struck Sumy using long-range multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS), hitting several locations simultaneously. The attack killed three people and injured 20. The strike is being investigated as a war crime by the Prosecutor’s Office.

Sumy community has declared June 4 a Day of Mourning.
