BOMBSHELL: Massive Russian Drone and Missile Attack Leaves 8 Dead, Dozens Injured in Ukraine

A devastating Russian onslaught on a nine-story building in Sumy, a city in northern Ukraine, has claimed the lives of eight civilians and injured dozens more, according to Ukrainian officials. The strike, which is being described as one of the largest in recent months, was a massive drone and missile attack that shook the city.

The victims of the tragedy include two children, with Ukraine's Interior Minister, Ihor Klymenko, confirming their loss of life. Incredibly, over 400 people managed to escape the devastation by fleeing the building, where rescuers have been checking every apartment for anyone who may be still trapped inside the damaged structure.

The attack has sent shockwaves through the conflict-torn region, and analysts are hailing it as one of the most significant escalation in the already volatile situation between Russia and Ukraine. The city of Sumy lies just 24 miles from the Ukrainian-Russia border, making it a critical flashpoint in the ongoing conflict.
