On Thursday, Russian strikes in eastern Ukraine resulted in the death of 30 people and injuries to at least 18, including a deadly attack on a public bus, according to authorities. The attacks have intensified in a pre-winter wave of assaults, exacerbating power outages in the capital Kyiv. Vadym Filashkin, head of the regional military administration, reported that public transport in Kramatorsk and Sloviansk, two cities in Ukraine's Donetsk region, was suspended due to the alarming security situation.
Filashkin vehemently accused Russia of deliberately targeting civilians, emphasizing that the safety of residents in Kramatorsk and Sloviansk is paramount. The region has experienced similar deadly missile strikes earlier in the day, which claimed 22 lives, including five children, in the northern Ukrainian town of Pryluky. Rescue operations are ongoing, with at least 54 people injured amidst the rubble of a residential building struck by a Russian missile.
