The Russian military shelled several communities close to the Russian border 94 times on Jan. 9, Sumy Oblast Governor Dmytro Zhyvytskyi said in a post on Telegram.

Russian forces fired almost at the Krasnopil, Shalyhinsk, Bilopil, and Yunakivska communities with artillery and mortars and dropped explosives from a drone, Zhyvytskyi said.

No casualties were reported.

Located on Ukraine's northeastern border with Russia, Sumy Oblast is the target of daily Russian shelling and frequent missile strikes.

Ukraine’s ambassador to US: ‘It's either fight and liberate Ukraine or die. And we choose not to die.’
