Ukraine-Krieg: Luhansk: Tote bei Angriff auf Kleinbus - Raketen auf Donezk

In the Luhansk region of Russian-occupied eastern Ukraine, a drone strike on a minibus resulted in at least nine deaths and six injuries, according to the occupying authorities. The bus was carrying 15 passengers on a route between Lyssytschansk and Kadijiwka, approximately 50 kilometers from the front line. Kyiv frequently accuses the occupying forces of attacking civilians.

In the neighboring Donetsk region, local media reported a Ukrainian missile attack on the Russian-occupied regional capital of Donetsk, with four to five explosions reported. Video footage of a massive smoke cloud circulated on social media, but no casualty figures have been confirmed yet. Russia has been waging war against Ukraine since February 2022, claiming control over southern and eastern parts of the neighboring country. Luhansk is almost entirely under Russian control.
