Your command line contains one occurrence of sudo but also &&. In this case, sudo only applies to the former command, not the part after &&. Add sudo to the latter command, too.

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y

However, there is at least one more problem:

502  Connection timed out [IP: 2001:67c:1360:8001::21 80]

which means you should check your network connection.

Generally, you should run commands manually one by one (i.e. avoid &&, -y etc.) to diagnose problems.

Try these commands:

sudo -i
apt-get clean
cd /var/lib/apt
mv lists lists.old
mkdir -p lists/partial
apt-get clean
apt-get update
