On early Wednesday, a Loitering munition kamikaze drone attack from Russia hit a bus in the southern area of Dnipropetrovsk province, in Ukraine killing at least nine people and injuring 30 to 51 according to different reports. The city where the attack happened was in Marhanets.
134 drones from Russia were launched overnight, said Kyiv‘s Air force. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the bus attack was ‘an absolutely deliberate war crime‘.
The drone strike hit a bus on a bank of Ukraine. The bus was sending workers to a mining and processing plant. Russia did not immediately want to comment on the drone strike.
