More details are emerging about the russian attack on the bus with miners.

The first Shahed exploded near the bus. People ran, tried to help each other. The operator saw this — and sent a second drone straight at them.

This was a deliberate attack on civilians.

16 people died.

Tilanne muistuttaa Saksaa natsien vallannousun jälkeen 1935. Vähemmistöjä vainotaan, parlamentti neuvottomassa tilassa, oikeusvaltio ja yliopistojen itsenäisyys murenee, toimeenpanovalta keskittää valtaa laittomasti etsien ulkoisia/sisäisiä vihollisia, osa mediaa hylkää totuuden toistaen propagandaa

Apparently people are surprised that a man whose only friends on the world stage are a KGB agent & a North Korean Stalinist planned to unleash a murderous secret police on his population.

Looking back, there were signs.

Kharkiv spent the day under explosions.

Russia struck the city with Tornado-S MLRS, destroying an energy infrastructure facility, and continued attacking with drones — making sure there was no pause, no sense of safety.

Three people were injured.
