In the Sumy region, Russian aircraft dropped seven KABs on the city of Sumy. A deceased man was discovered in the Kovpak district, while three other individuals sustained injuries during the assault. These incidents underscore the grave danger facing civilians in this area.

In the Donetsk region, Russian forces targeted 11 populated localities, killing five people and wounding six. The city of Kramatorsk endured 17 strikes, 10 of which involved KABs, leading to three deaths and two injuries. Meanwhile, in Druzhkivka, attacks killed two people and damaged one apartment building and nine private homes.
