Russia Launches Largest Missile and Drone Attack on Ukraine

Kiev, Ukraine - A devastating drone and missile attack by Russian forces has struck a nine-story building in Sumy, Ukraine, killing eight people and leaving dozens injured, an official announced Sunday. The attack, described as the largest of its kind in recent months, also resulted in over 400 evacuations from the besieged city.

Located just 40 kilometers from the Ukrainian-Russian border, the city of Sumy has been a hotspot for conflict in recent days. Among the fatalities was a heartbreaking mix of adults and children, with two minors confirmed dead by Ukraine's Minister of Internal Affairs Ihor Klymenko.

Rescue efforts continue to be hindered by the extent of the damage to the building, with search teams scouring every apartment in an effort to account for all survivors. The Ukrainian government has expressed deep concerns about the severity and scale of Russia's assault on its territory.

This devastating attack marks a turning point in the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia, with both sides showing no signs of letting up their aggressive military posturing.
