Since the beginning of summer, the aggressor country of the russian federation has carried out more than 2,000 strikes on the territory of the Sumy Region. Because of this, the population of 183 settlements is subject to evacuation.
The Minister of Interior Affairs Ihor Klymenko announced this on his Telegram channel.
Throughout the summer, the russians used missiles, artillery, guided aerial bombs, attack drones, and mortars to attack the Sumy Region.
"Due to constant Russian terror, the population of 183 settlements in 15 territorial communities of the Sumy Region is subject to priority evacuation. More than 20,000 people have already been evacuated, including almost 2,500 children," Klymenko said.
In his opinion, the creation of a buffer zone on the territory of the Kursk Oblast is a step that will help protect Ukrainian border communities from daily enemy shelling.
We will remind, due to the increase in the intensity of hostilities, the military restricted the movement of citizens in the 20-km border zone in the Sumy Region.
Meanwhile, Ukraine plans to open humanitarian corridors for the evacuation of the Kursk Oblast residents.
