The Russian military shelled the Znob-Novhorodske and Seredyna-Buda communities in northern Sumy Oblast close to the Russian border on Dec. 10, Sumy Oblast Governor Dmytro Zhyvytskyi wrote in a Telegram post.

Russian forces fired at the communities with mortars and heavy artillery, hitting an area where a funeral procession was happening, Zhyvytskyi said.

Earlier on Dec. 10, Zhyvytsky reported that a Russian missile strike a day prior on the Velykopysarivska community in Sumy Oblast damaged 20 homes and other civilian infrastructure.
