Four dead in drone attack on minibus in Kherson

It's a new, macabre term that's making the rounds in the Ukraine war: "drone safaris." The Ukrainian side says that Russia is deliberately hunting people. Now, according to information from Kyiv, civilians have been attacked again.

According to Kyiv, at least four people died and five others were injured in a drone attack on a minibus in the southern Ukrainian city of Kherson. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyj spoke of a brutal “safari”. This has “long since exceeded the limits of what a normal person can even imagine,” writes the head of state on Telegram.

"It is clear that it was a civilian bus," Zelensky announced. "This is everyday life in the Ukrainian areas near the front." The head of state also published several photos of the destroyed bus with pools of blood. In Kherson in particular, the authorities repeatedly complain about such “drone safaris”. Kherson is located near the front and was under Russian control from March to November 2022.

The governor of the Kherson region, Oleksandr Prokudin, published pictures on Telegram showing a minibus with damaged windows and traces of blood on the ground.

Zelensky criticized that Ukraine's allies were "still hesitant to provide additional supplies of protective equipment." He also demanded once again: “Pressure must be exerted on the aggressor. The defenders of life need support.” New aid packages and further sanctions against Russia are needed.
