At the moment, seven injured passengers are receiving the necessary medical care.

"Route buses and ordinary large buses are the main target for drone strikes in Horlivka. Over the past two months, this is already at least the fifth bus affected by targeted strikes by Ukrainian drones," the correspondent summarized.
