A devastating Russian drone and missile attack on a nine-story building in Sumy, Ukraine's northern city on Sunday left eight people dead and dozens wounded, officials confirmed. The attack, described by Ukrainian officials as the largest in recent months, was met with condemnation from the international community.
According to Ukraine's Minister of Internal Affairs Ihor Klymenko, two children were among those killed in the strike. The official also confirmed that over 400 people had been evacuated from the building after it came under attack.
Rescue efforts are currently underway, with officials conducting a thorough search of every apartment in the damaged building to ensure no one is still trapped inside. The full extent of the damage and casualties remains unclear as investigators work to piece together what sparked the attack.
