Russian forces maintained their offensive across Ukraine from June 7-14, causing civilian casualties and infrastructure damage. On June 7, explosions were reported in Russian-occupied Crimea, with suspected fires at oil depots near Kerch and Feodosia. Russia's Ministry of Defense claimed 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. In Kherson, a 14-year-old boy sustained injuries during shelling in the Korabelny district, and a drone also struck a multi-story building in the Central district. 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.
