In the Sumy region, Russian troops attacked the Myropilia and Sumy communities with FPV drones and guided aerial bombs, injuring a man and damaging houses and power lines.

According to Ukrinform, this was reported on Telegram by the head of the Sumy Regional State Administration, Oleh Hryhorov.

“Russia continues to deliberately attack the civilian population of Sumy region. Today, the enemy struck the village in the Bytytskyi starosta of the Sumy community with guided aerial bombs. Residential buildings and power lines were damaged,” he said.

In addition, a 32-year-old man was injured in the Myropilia community during an attack by an enemy FPV drone.

According to Hryhorov, he had long since evacuated from the village, but today he came to visit his home, and when he was returning, he came under fire.

“The man was hospitalized with minor shrapnel wounds. He is currently being examined by doctors, and his life is not in danger,” he added.

The head of the Sumy Regional Military Administration called on residents of the Sumy region to refrain from traveling to border settlements, which are constantly shelled by the enemy and from which evacuation has been ongoing for a long time. “The enemy cynically continues to attack civilians, their homes, and transport,” he emphasized.
