Russia says nearly 900 Ukrainian drones downed and Moscow region fuel depot reportedly burns

On Tuesday, a Ukrainian drone attack on a minibus in the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia region claimed the lives of three individuals, according to Moscow-appointed authorities. Kremlin-appointed official Yevgeny Balitsky disclosed on Telegram that the Ukrainian drone struck the bus near a village close to the front line, resulting in three fatalities, including the driver, and three others sustained injuries.

The bus was en route from the village of Basan Pologi, situated south of the town of Orikhiv, towards advancing Russian forces. Russia currently exerts control over the southern portion of the Zaporizhzhia region, one of four Ukrainian territories Russia claims as its own. The ongoing Russian full-scale military offensive against Ukraine, which commenced in 2022, has morphed into Europe's most devastating conflict since World War II, resulting in the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives.
