Russian missile attack on homes and hospitals/ 65 injured in Ukraine

Ukraine reports that a Russian missile attack hit a hospital, homes and children's institutions in the city of Sumy. At least 65 people are reported injured, including several children.

The number of people confirmed injured in the Russian missile attack on the Ukrainian city of Sumy has risen to 65, including 14 children, Ukraine's prosecutor's office says.

In a statement, it said the attack took place at around 2:00 p.m. local time and targeted a densely populated area.

Officials add that an investigation has been launched into the rocket attack.

The acting mayor of Sumy, Artem Kobzar, has changed his social media posts to say that the Russian missile strike today targeted children's institutions and a hospital. The original version said that the targets were residential areas and infrastructure, including children's hospitals.

Sumy is the administrative center of the northeastern Sumy region, which borders Russia's Kursk region. Ukraine launched an incursion into the Kursk region last August, but in recent weeks Ukrainian forces have retreated under Russian pressure.

Sumy has been the target of numerous Russian attacks in the past, and recently regional authorities have warned of an increasing number of missile and drone attacks, as well as attempts by Russian units to cross the border into the Sumy region. /CNA
