A Russian guided aerial bomb strike on Sumy, Ukraine, on Sunday 27 September killed two people, including a 16-year-old girl, and injured five others, according to Oleh Hryhorov, head of the regional military administration. The attack drew renewed attention to ongoing Russian strikes on Ukrainian cities and their toll on civilians, including children.

Russian strikes on the city of Sumy in northeastern Ukraine have killed two people and injured 23 others, including four children, according to the Kyiv Independent. The attacks hit several locations across the Sumy community, including a residential area in Sumy Oblast. The strike is part of ongoing Russian attacks on Ukrainian cities, with civilian casualties continuing to draw international condemnation.

Two people were killed in Sumy, Ukraine, including a 16-year-old girl, after a Russian glide bomb strike. One of the hits landed near the city centre, close to a family and children support centre, which was fortunately empty at the time of the impact.
