A Russian glide bomb attack on 2 civilian buses in Kramatorsk, eastern Ukraine, has killed 33 people and injured 18, Ukrainian officials said. Donetsk regional head Vadym Filashkin accused Russia of deliberately targeting a passenger bus. Images released by prosecutors showed a burned bus and debris scattered across the road. The attack comes amid a sharp rise in Russian strikes and civilian casualties across Ukraine. In Kyiv, 3 people were reportedly killed and 14 injured in separate attacks. Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky offered condolences to victims’ families and called on international partners to provide stronger defence support as Russian attacks intensify. (PC: BBC)
