Amid the US's focus on the Israel-Iran conflict, Russia has escalated hostilities against Ukraine, evidenced by recent drone strikes that resulted in fatalities and injuries. A tragic attack in Sumy killed an eight-year-old boy and two adults, while several regions in Ukraine faced drone attacks. Concurrently, Ukraine has retaliated with drone strikes on Russian territory, including a targeted attack in Moscow that injured several civilians. This ongoing cycle of violence highlights the deteriorating security situation as peace efforts stagnate and global attention shifts away from the conflict.
The strikes came a day after a massive missile and drone strike on Ukraine's capital Kyiv killed at least 10 people. The strike took the lives of people from different families, the military administration said on Telegram regarding the Sumy attack.
They all lived on the same street. They went to sleep in their homes. But Russian drones interrupted their sleep forever.
Russia said a Ukrainian drone had targeted a residential building in Moscow overnight, wounding two people, including a pregnant woman, and triggering a fire.
Russia's air defence units destroyed 20 Ukrainian drones overnight, including two over the Moscow region.
