In a series of devastating attacks, at least four individuals were killed and ten more were injured in Ukrainian regions bordering Russia. On Friday, two women, an elderly man, and a toddler lost their lives when a Russian drone hit a residential building in the Sumy region. Separately, seven people sustained injuries in a missile attack on Kryvyi Rih, in the Dnipropetrovsk region. The UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres strongly condemned these attacks and called for an immediate ceasefire. These assaults come a day after Moscow unleashed a deadly barrage on Kyiv, resulting in at least 30 fatalities and prompting a day of mourning in the capital city. Amidst this escalating conflict, Ukraine's air force has reportedly intercepted a significant number of Russian drones and missiles. The European Union is now considering additional sanctions against Moscow in response to these attacks. Despite the mounting casualties and international condemnation, Russia has vowed to intensify its pressure on Kyiv.
