On March 13, on the highway near the village of Nova Oleksandrivka, the Russian army launched an Iskander missile at a regular bus traveling on the Kharkiv-Velyky Burluk route. This was reported by the Prosecutor General’s Office.
As a result of the powerful strike, three people died – the driver, who was driving the vehicle until the last moment, and two bus passengers. Four more people – three bus passengers and a local resident – were injured.
The missile hit directly into the civilian sector: in addition to the bus, six nearby houses were damaged.
Prosecutors, in cooperation with investigators, are taking all necessary measures to document the war crime committed by the military of the aggressor state.
There were 15 passengers on the bus at the time of the impact. Most of them survived, which law enforcement officers and eyewitnesses are calling a true miracle.
