Ukraine's air force reported on Friday via Telegram that Russian aircraft had conducted airstrikes using guided bombs in the Sumy region of northern Ukraine.

Despite the ceasefire announced by Russia, hostilities appear to continue, with each side blaming the other for ongoing conflict.

Efforts to independently confirm the airstrikes by Reuters have yet to yield conclusive evidence.
