This was reported by the Sumy Regional Military Administration.

According to the military administration, Russian troops dropped KAB glide bombs on the civilian infrastructure of the community. A total of four explosions were recorded. Preliminary, the attack killed two people and injured six, including one child.

In addition, apartment buildings and a hospital were damaged, and there is no electricity supply. All necessary services are working at the scene.

Volunteers of the Razom for Ukraine charitable foundation informed that while unloading humanitarian aid for the Yampil hospital, they also came under massive KAB attack. In particular, according to them, two bombs exploded 100 meters from the hospital.

It is noted that the volunteers and hospital staff were not seriously injured, but the building of the medical facility itself had shattered windows, and the vehicles and humanitarian aid were cut by shrapnel. After the attack, wounded locals, mostly women, children and the elderly, were brought to the hospital and treated in extreme conditions in the basement.

“After the situation in the Kursk region and the Sumy border region escalated, the Razom for Ukraine foundation launched a mini-program to provide Sumy hospitals with essential medicines, orthopedic devices and consumables. Including today's delivery to Yampil and previous deliveries to medical institutions in Sumy, Khotyn, Shostka and Hlukhiv, the charity foundation has delivered about 10 tons of humanitarian aid worth UAH 8 million,” the foundation said.

  • On the evening of September 11, Russia launched several groups of drones at Ukraine. On the night of September 12, air defense was operating in the Poltava region. There are victims in Konotop, the Sumy region, including a child.
