Explosions shake Sumy: one injured, power outages reported
At least two explosions were reported in the northeastern Ukrainian city of Sumy in the overnight Russian attack, public broadcaster Suspilne reported on Telegram early on Aug. 13.
The attack triggered an air raid alert that has been in effect for more than 9 hours already.
The first explosion was reported at 4:13 a.m. EET.
At least one civilian was hospitalized after the Russian attack on Sumy, regional governor Oleksii Drozdenko reported, adding that the city also faced temporary gas and power outages.
30 of 38 Shahed kamikaze drones launched by Russia in several groups were shot down overnight, a morning report by Ukrainian Air Force Commander Mykola Oleshchuk wrote.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
