'Tough to play' - Svitolina's pain after attacks on Ukraine
Monday, 8 July 2024 Elina Svitolina found it "extremely tough" to focus on competing at Wimbledon after learning of deadly Russian attacks on her native Ukraine.
A Russian drone attack on Sumy, northeastern Ukraine, killed two people and injured 12 others on Friday morning, officials report. Residential buildings, cars, and a shop were damaged in the strikes. Rescuers saved two from rubble as prosecutors launched a war crimes investigation.

Dmitry Medvedev shared a video of Russia’s Oreshnik hypersonic missile striking a Ukrainian defense facility in Dnepropetrovsk, clarifying that it wasn’t an ICBM, but a medium-range missile developed after the US withdrew from the INF Treaty. The strike responded to Ukraine's use of Western long-range missiles against Russian territory. Putin warned further actions by Ukraine and its allies would trigger a suitable response, emphasizing the Oreshnik’s speed makes it invincible to air defenses.
