Russia's invasion of Ukraine has reached its 1,000th day, marked by a recent drone attack in the Sumy region that killed six people, including a child. Twelve others were injured in the strike on a residential dormitory. At the G20 summit in Brazil, leaders acknowledged the "human suffering" caused by the conflict but did not identify Russia as the aggressor. The statement emphasized the war's impact on global food and energy security. Russia claimed that over 900,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed or injured since the invasion began. This figure is unverified, and estimates suggest Ukrainian casualties are significantly lower than Russian losses.
