The Russian military launched attacks against four border communities in Sumy Oblast on June 28, the Sumy Oblast Military Administration reported on Telegram.

Russian shelling struck the communities of Bilopillia, Krasnopillia, Myropillia, and Yunakiv, according to the administration.

A total of 36 explosions were recorded across the four communities, the post said, resulting from mortar attacks, artillery shelling, and mines.

According to preliminary reports from the communities, the attacks caused no casualties or damage to civilian infrastructure.

The same four communities came under fire earlier this week, when Russians attacked the border on June 25.

Sumy Oblast lies on Ukraine's northeastern border with Russia. Since Ukraine liberated parts of the region from  occupation in April 2022, Russian troops have targeted the oblast with daily attacks.

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.
