Ukraine reported that two people were injured in a Russian overnight drone attack on the Sumy region, where a five‑storey residential building caught fire, emergency services said on Friday. Several cars were also destroyed in the strike, and rescuers had to pause operations due to repeated threats of further attacks. The incident highlights continuing risks for civilians as fighting persists ahead of a proposed Easter ceasefire.
Overnight, drones also hit port and energy facilities in Odesa, causing power disruptions but no new casualties, according to regional officials. Ukraine’s air force said dozens of drones were launched across the country, underlining the scale of ongoing hostilities.
