The Russian military launched 25 attacks at nine border communities in Sumy Oblast on June 28, the Sumy Oblast Military Administration reported on the Telegram messaging app.

Russian attacks targeted the communities of Esmanska, Myropilska, Krasnopilska, Hlukhivska, Bilopilska, Velykopysarivska, Shalyhynska, Yunakivska, Khotinska, according to the administration.

In the Esmanska community, a power line was damaged as a result of shelling and in the Myropilska community, a home and a tractor were damaged due to mortar attacks. No casualties among the civilian population were reported.

Сeasefire would leave 25% of Ukraine under Russian control, ambassador says.

"Many countries have proposed the idea of a ceasefire, but no one thinks about what it means. Some 25% of Ukrainian territory would remain under Russian control, which means buying time for Russia to strengthen its capabilities and resume its attacks on Ukraine," Ambassador of Ukraine to Turkey Vasyl Bodnar said.
