Russian glide bomb attack on buses kills dozens in Kramatorsk

A Russian glide bomb hit two passenger buses in Kramatorsk, eastern Ukraine, on October 8, killing at least 30 people. Eighteen more were wounded in the attack. Kramatorsk is close to the front line in the Donbas region, which Russia is trying to capture.

Local officials said the attack was deliberate and was designed to kill as many civilians as possible. After the strike, authorities stopped all public bus services in the city. Three more people died in a nearby village called Bilenke.

Russia has carried out many more air strikes across Ukraine in recent months, and civilian deaths have risen as a result. The Donbas region has seen some of the heaviest fighting of the war.
