Russian attacks on Sumy, Dnipropetrovsk, and Kharkiv regions leave victims, including children

On April 26, Russian soldiers launched guided aerial bombs onto Sumy, causing damage to an industrial facility. Artillery fire also hit Nikopol in the Dnipropetrovsk region, resulting in injuries to two individuals, including a 9-year-old boy. Additionally, two children were injured as a result of the Russian attack on Derhachi in the Kharkiv region.

The head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, Serhiy Lysak, the Sumy Regional Military Administration, and the head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, Oleh Synehubov, reported this.

Sumy

On the morning of April 26, the Russian occupation forces carried out an airstrike on an industrial facility in the city of Sumy.

"Today, April 26, the enemy carried out an airstrike on an industrial facility in the city of Sumy, using two anti-aircraft missiles," the message says.

According to the regional military administration, all necessary services are working on the spot, and the consequences of the attack are being clarified.

It is important to mention that Russian troops have been terrorizing the border of the Sumy region, which shares a border with the Russian Federation, daily. As a result, Sumy is currently being subjected to constant fire.

Kharkiv region

The enemy also hit the city of Derhachi with KAB bombs [laser-guided aerial bomb – ed.]. Two children were injured.

"Due to enemy attacks in the city of Derhachi, located in the Kharkiv district, two children were injured. The two girls, ages 16 and 5, were given on-site medical assistance and did not require hospitalization," the post reads.

According to Synehubov, the Russians hit the central part of the city with guided aerial bombs.

Nikopol

Russian troops fired artillery at Nikopol, Dnipropetrovsk region.

"A 9-year-old boy was injured during the shelling of Nikopol," the head of the regional military administration said.

He says that the child is in a moderately severe condition.

"The doctors provided the necessary medical assistance. He will recover at home. A 42-year-old man is also among the victims," Lysak added.

In addition, the city sustained damage to:

• four five-story buildings;
• and a gas pipeline.

It should be noted that Russian troops are constantly shelling Nikopol in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

The reality is that the city is situated just across from the temporarily occupied Enerhodar in the Zaporizhzhia region, separated only by the width of the Dnipro River.

That's why the invaders are constantly launching attacks on the city.

For reference:

On April 25, during the day, the Russian invaders shelled the railway infrastructure of the Kharkiv, Cherkasy, and Donetsk regions. As a result of the attack, railway workers were killed and wounded.
