Do We Add Bugs To The Sprint Backlog?

Do We Estimate The Bugs In Terms Of Story Points?

If There Is A Production Issue, Should We Stop The Sprint And Work On An Issue?

For P1 (critical) issues, it is common to pause or adjust sprint commitments to resolve the issue, as ensuring system stability takes precedence. For non-critical issues, defer them to the next sprint or handle them as part of regular sprint work.
