Russian Drones Continue to Devastate Peaceful Life in Sumy Region: New Attacks and Consequences
For the fourth time in recent months, the malicious actions of Russian unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) on Ukrainian territory have become especially intense.
On August 10, the Sumy district witnessed renewed drone activity, with military drones used for reconnaissance and striking peaceful communities.
This was reported by Oleg Grygorov, head of the Sumy Regional Military Administration.
According to him, Ukrainian defense forces have already downed several enemy reconnaissance drones across different parts of the community, yet the enemy continues to increase its operational activity.
One of the recent attacks involved a Russian attack drone setting fire to a farm in the region, destroying approximately one hectare of wheat and damaging a vehicle.
Fortunately, no injuries were reported.
Another drone caused damage to a vehicle, indicating targeted efforts to disrupt infrastructure and economic assets, particularly in agriculture.
Grygorov emphasizes that the enemy’s goal is to undermine regional stability and security by deliberately attacking civilian infrastructure and agricultural facilities.
In response, Ukrainian forces have intensified efforts to detect and destroy enemy drones, a crucial measure in counteracting these new threats.
Earlier, on August 9, a man aged 50 was injured in Sadykivka village after a drone dropped an explosive device.
The situation remains tense, with military and emergency services focusing on minimizing the impact of enemy attacks.
