# KAB Strike on Sumy Oblast: Casualties, Homes and Infrastructure Destroyed

Russian occupiers launched a new strike on Sumy Oblast using guided aerial bombs (KABs). As a result of the attack, five people were injured, private residential houses, infrastructure facilities, and vehicles were damaged. This was reported by the head of the Sumy Regional Military Administration, Oleksandr Hryhorov.

### Aftermath cleanup continues

At this time, details regarding the exact location of the strike, the nature of the damage sustained, and the current condition of the injured are being clarified. Official services have already begun to mitigate the consequences of the attack and assist the population.

### Sumy Oblast — a priority target for Russian airstrikes

Attacks using KABs remain one of the main tools used by the Russian army to strike Ukraine's frontline regions. Occupiers actively employ this tactic due to the ability to hit targets from a relatively long distance, minimizing risks to their own aviation. Special attention in this context is paid specifically to Sumy Oblast.

### Series of recent tragedies in the region

This incident is just one in a series of tragic events that have occurred in Sumy over the past few days:

- On the night of July 25, a Russian drone hit the territory of the sorting terminal of the "Nova Poshta" logistics yard. Three people died as a result of the incident.

- On July 24, the Russian army struck a gas station. One person died, and a nearby supermarket was also damaged.

- On the night of July 21, Russian drones attacked a 9-story residential building in Sumy, causing a fire on the first floor.
