At least 30 dead in Russian glide bomb attacks on buses in Ukraine | BBC News

A BBC News report on a Russian glide bomb attack on two civilian buses in Kramatorsk, a front-line city in eastern Ukraine. Rescue officials said at least 30 people were killed. Three more people were reported killed in the village of Bilenke, part of the Kramatorsk community, and 18 were wounded, according to Donetsk regional head Vadym Filashkin, who accused Russia of targeting buses carrying passengers.
