A Russian strike on a crowded bus in a frontline city killed 33 civilians, officials say, amid a surge of deadly attacks on Ukraine.

Ukrainian authorities accused Russian forces of targeting the bus to inflict maximum civilian casualties. The attack, which occurred in a city on the front line, left 33 people dead and many others injured.

Details about the exact location of the incident have not been released, but the incident is part of a broader pattern of strikes on civilian transport and infrastructure that have intensified in recent weeks.

Ukrainian officials have called for international condemnation and accountability, noting that the attack represents a stark escalation in the conflict’s impact on non‑combatants.
