Wei Dongxu, editor-in-chief of Global Military Report of CCTV Global Information Radio, analyzed that the Russian army bombed military targets in Sumy Oblast in an attempt to isolate the Ukrainian army fighting in Kursk Oblast. Before the Ukrainian army launched the attack on Kursk Oblast, it assembled troops in Sumy Oblast and deployed some fire support platforms in Sumy Oblast. Now that the Ukrainian army has invaded the Russian mainland, Sumy Oblast is regarded by the Ukrainian army as a rear base to support the front-line combat troops.

The Russian Aerospace Forces sent fighter jets to bomb military facilities in Sumy Oblast in order to prevent the Ukrainian army from sending reinforcements to Kursk Oblast. At the same time, it cut off the Ukrainian army's logistical supply lines and minimize the Ukrainian army's combat capabilities.
