  "account": "At least 12 people lost their lives and 19 were injured when Russian forces targeted two buses in the Ukrainian city of Kramatorsk, located in the eastern Donetsk region. The assault, which occurred around 10 am local time, took place in a public transportation hub, a location not typically targeted by military forces. The Kramatorsk City Council expressed their condolences on Telegram, stating that civilians were simply commuting when the strike occurred. Regional Governor Vadym Filashkin has personally offered his condolences to the families affected and confirmed that authorities are still assessing the full impact of the attack. The Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, also saw casualties on Thursday, with Mayor Vitali Klitschko announcing the death of two individuals and injuries to two others following a drone strike in the Solomianskyi district. Rescue and search operations are currently underway in both Kramatorsk and Kyiv. Earlier in the day, Kyiv Mayor Klitschko reported that one person had died and 11 were injured in Russian attacks on the Ukrainian capital. Russia reportedly launched 142 drones at Ukraine overnight, with Ukraine's air force claiming to have engaged and neutralized 126 enemy UAVs, primarily of the Shahed and Gerber types.",
