Abstract: We prove and generalize several recent conjectures of Z.-W. Sun surrounding binomial coefficients and harmonic numbers. We show that Sun's series and their analogs can be represented as cyclotomic multiple zeta values of levels $N\in\{4,8,12,16,24\} $, namely Goncharov's multiple polylogarithms evaluated at $N $-th roots of unity.

Keywords: Sun's series, binomial coefficients, harmonic numbers, cyclotomic multiple zeta values.
