Russian airstrikes killed eight people in Ukraine on Sunday, September 27, 2026, marking the 1,677th day of the ongoing conflict. In the central city of Sumy, three aerial bombs struck, hitting a children's center and killing two people, including a 16-year-old girl, according to Ukrainian Interior Minister Ivan Vyhovsky. In Kyiv and its suburbs, strikes killed one person and injured four, damaging more than sixteen sites, both residential and industrial. A man was killed in a Russian drone attack in the Butcha district of Kyiv. In Odessa and its surrounding region, which borders the Black Sea, Russian attacks killed one person and injured three during the night, according to local authorities. Earlier that day, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported three deaths from nighttime strikes in the southern region of Zaporizhzhia. Zelenskyy stated that Russian forces had launched more than 2,200 attack drones, 1,650 aerial bombs, and 38 missiles in Ukraine during the previous week. These attacks took place the day after Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told the United Nations that Moscow intended to continue its military campaign "to the end." The Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed that it had bombed a "data center" of Kyivstar in Kyiv, as well as another of the Omega Telecom company, stating that these companies provided services to the Ukrainian military. The ministry also released an image of a drone with the ironic message "Digital detox," indicating its efforts to disrupt internet access. In the part of the Ukrainian region of Zaporizhzhia under Russian occupation, a Ukrainian drone attack killed a woman in the city of Enerhodar, according to a municipal official appointed by Moscow. In France, Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot criticized politicians Jean-Luc Mélenchon and Marine Le Pen for positions on the conflict that he said did not align with Ukraine's interests. Barrot suggested their views reflected a lack of confidence in the European Union and a complacency toward Russian President Vladimir Putin. In Poland, tensions have risen after an attack at an abbey where a 31-year-old Ukrainian man stabbed five people, including a priest who was fatally wounded. The incident has fueled anti-Ukrainian sentiment on social media, according to sociologist Marcin Piotrowski. Poland hosts around 1.5 million Ukrainian refugees, but public support for their reception has declined, with a recent survey showing that 52% of Poles oppose hosting Ukrainian refugees. In the occupied part of Kherson, Ukrainian officials announced that 4 tons of food had been delivered to Olechky via drones, despite ongoing disputes between Kyiv and Moscow over humanitarian access. The Ukrainian government accused Russia of holding around 2,000 people hostage in the region, while Moscow blamed Ukrainian forces for obstructing aid deliveries.
