Russian forces continued their attacks across Ukraine from June 7-14, resulting in civilian casualties and damage to infrastructure. On June 7, explosions were reported in Russian-occupied Crimea, with suspected fires at oil depots near Kerch and Feodosia, while Russia's Ministry of Defense stated it intercepted drones over the peninsula. The following day, a drone strike in Konotop, Sumy region, hit a residential building, killing a 78-year-old woman and injuring three others. A 14-year-old boy sustained injuries during shelling in Kherson's Korabelny district, and two individuals were wounded in Odesa. Throughout the week, the Sumy region experienced remote road mining, strikes on civilian vehicles and buses, and disruptions to electricity and water supplies. Russian forces also reportedly struck a fire truck and shelled a fire station in Sumy region's Hlukhiv community.
