- On Sunday, a Russian drone struck an ATB supermarket in Chernihiv, killing at least two people, including a child, while Chernihiv City Military Administration head Dmytro Bryzhynskyi reported 20 people sought medical care.
- These daytime strikes coincided with a nationwide aerial bombardment; Russian guided aerial bombs hit Zaporizhzhia, where regional administration head Ivan Fedorov confirmed one death, six injuries, and damage to residential buildings.
- Chernihiv Oblast administration head Viacheslav Chaus identified the dead child as a 9-year-old girl, while the prosecutor's office initiated a pre-trial investigation into the incident as a war crime.
- Calling the strike deliberate terror, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wrote on Telegram that Russian forces keep "defeating" ordinary civilian objects, renewing his push for tougher sanctions on Moscow.
- The nationwide bombardment also targeted civilian maritime infrastructure in the Black Sea, where Russian drones struck a cargo ship sailing under the flag of Palau, while emergency services continued operations at a burning hypermarket in Kryvyi Rih.
