Russian forces carried out a new airstrike on the northeastern Ukrainian city of Sumy using KAB guided aerial bombs, striking civilian infrastructure and residential buildings, according to the Ukrainian news agency Ukrinform.
The strike caused fatalities among residents, and at least one child was injured, Ukrainian sources reported. It was described as the latest in a series of attacks on the city carried out with this type of weapon.
KAB bombs are guided munitions that Russian forces have used repeatedly against Ukrainian cities near the border with Russia, including Sumy, which has faced recurring strikes throughout the conflict.
Ukrainian authorities continue to document such strikes as part of the broader record of attacks on civilian areas since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022.
Further details on the exact casualty count and the specific locations struck within Sumy were not immediately available.
