Russian attack destroys pharmaceutical plant in Sumy

A Russian attack on Sumy on the morning of 4 October destroyed the production site of the pharmaceutical company KUSUM. As a result of the strike, an employee of the enterprise, Yevhen Miroshnychenko, who had worked in the plant's engineering department since 2009, was killed.

The company confirmed the destruction of the plant, which produced essential medicines. KUSUM manufactures 146 brands of drugs, including Zolopent, L-Tset, Domrid, Abrol, Lospirin, and Metamin.
