In turn, the US President's Special Representative for Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, noted that today's Russian attack on civilian targets in Sumy on Palm Sunday “crosses all boundaries of decency.”

“As a former military leader, I understand what targeting is, and it is unacceptable. That is why President Trump is working so hard to end this war,” Kellogg wrote in X.

On April 13, Russian forces launched two ballistic missiles at the center of Sumy.

According to the latest data from the State Emergency Service of Ukraine, as a result of the missile strike on Sumy on April 13, 32 people were killed and 99 were injured, including 11 children.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha said Ukraine was providing detailed information about the attack to its partners and international organizations, and called on all capitals and headquarters to respond decisively to the crime.
