According to the minister, emergency services continue to work at the scene.

"Sincere condolences to the families and loved ones of the victims. Sumy, we grieve with you," Klymenko emphasized.

What is important to understand is that in Sumy, the epicenter of the attack was the premises of the regional Human Rights Protection Center — the Russians completely destroyed it.

Recently, Kryvyi Rih. Now, Sumy. This is no longer an accident. This is a Russian terror tactic,” noted Ukrainian Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets.
