This is the best summary I could come up with:
A set of Russian strikes in northern Ukraine knocked out power for more than 100,000 people and cut off the water supply to a regional capital.
This week alone, Russia has used over 600 guided aerial bombs, more than 60 “Shahed” drones, and nearly 40 missiles of various types,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky posted Saturday on social media platform X, adding that the nation’s military had used international aid from the U.S. and Germany to strengthen its air defenses.
Hours later, the Ukrainian public broadcaster reported that Russian drones had hit the provincial capital, also called Sumy.
According to the Russian state agency RIA, a local pro-Kremlin “underground” leader said that Russia had hit a plant producing rocket ammunition in Sumy as well.
The region’s governor also reported that three more people died in Chasiv Yar, a strategically located town in Donetsk, whose fall, military analysts say, could put nearby cities in jeopardy.
Russia has claimed the Donetsk region is Russian territory, which has been rejected by Ukraine and the overwhelming majority of the international community.
