Kyiv:

At the least two individuals have been killed and 19 others have been wounded in a Russian drone assault on the northern Ukrainian metropolis of Sumy on Monday, native authorities stated.

An official constructing and two residential buildings have been broken in an assault carried out with 4 drones, the Sumy regional administration stated on the messaging app Telegram.

Photographs from the scene posted by Ukraine’s state emergency service confirmed mangled buildings and courtyards scattered with particles as rescue staff tackled a fireplace.

One other air-raid alert was declared within the Sumy area a number of hours after the morning strike, with the Ukrainian air power warning that extra drones may very well be on the best way.

Kyiv’s navy had earlier on Monday reported taking pictures down 13 of 17 Iranian-made Shahed drones launched by Moscow in a single day in a separate assault on a number of components of the nation.

Russia, which launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, has stepped up air strikes in opposition to Ukraine in current weeks, and Ukraine has launched a counteroffensive to attempt to retake occupied territory.
