Quote: "Esman community. Russia has provocatively shelled our territories with mortars again."

"Over fifty incomings in the last half hour. Casualties are being verified."

Background:

In early April, Russian occupying forces fled the Sumy region under pressure from the Ukrainian Armed Forces. However, Russian military equipment remains in some proximity to the Ukrainian border.

In the village of Bilka, Sumy region, Ukrainian defenders found traces of chemical weapons, including sarin, left behind by Russian military personnel previously stationed there.

In the evening of 25 April, the Sumy region came under shell fire four times, launched from Russian territory.
