"We heard a report on the key challenges of the defense of Sumy region from Head of Sumy regional military administration Oleh Hryhorov. We will submit these issues to the thematic meeting of the Cabinet on strengthening air defense and defense of frontline regions. Despite the fighting, life must go on. These are our people and our business, which we must protect and support," Svyrydenko said in the Telegram channel following the results of the government's field meeting in Sumy on Wednesday.
