Bilopillya in Sumy region suffered another act of brutal terror from the Russian Federation.

As a result of today’s attack on a regular bus near Bilopillya, civilians were killed. This was reported by the Head of the Sumy Regional State Administration – Head of the Regional Military Administration Oleg Grigorov .

“Today, as a result of an enemy strike on a regular bus near Bilopillya, 9 civilians were killed. Seven people were injured, three of them in serious condition,” he wrote. 

According to him, the Russians deliberately attacked civilian transport, which posed no threat. 

“Sumsky is in mourning. We bow our heads to the deceased. Sincere condolences to the families. A speedy recovery to all the wounded,” added the head of the Sumy Regional State Administration.

Russian shelling – latest news 

As a reminder, on May 16, the Russians attacked the Odessa region with drones. As reported, several people were injured. The attack led to the destruction of the house of the director of the Odessa Zoo, Igor Bilyakov. Outbuildings and cars were also damaged.

It should be noted that Igor Bilyakov has personally rescued various animals on more than one occasion. For example, last year he saved a Red Book snake that had hidden under a five-story building in a residential complex. It was also reported that the snake bit the zoo director . 

It was also reported that on May 14, Russia launched a missile strike on Sumy . The attack killed two people and injured nine others. 

According to local authorities, the Russians struck an industrial facility in the Sumy community at around 3:00 p.m. A destroyed building can be seen at the site of the strike.

  1. So sorry for the pain of the victims’ loved ones.

    What can be done to prevent putinaZi savagery like this?

    Provide Ukraine with a nuclear deterrent.

    You can’t reprogram the wormy brains of putinaZi scum, but you can quadruple the size of Ukraine’s air defences, quadruple its fleet of modern aircraft and provide Ukraine with a huge inventory of long range fires.
    It simply has to be done.
    Then : start bombing putinaZi cities into dust.

    • A commenter named Matthew Matic commented on this terrible story in the DT:

      “It still jars that a leading long-standing Security Council member whose prime mandates are:
      1. Protecting the sovereignty and territorial integrity of UN members
      2. Nuclear non-proliferation
      is busy violating both of these core principles on an epic scale in a vile imperialist war against a neighbour, and a neighbour who contributed immensely to its salvation eighty years ago at great cost.”

      I commented:

      “russia is evil.
      russians are savages.”

      The mods blocked it.

      • Much of the West still hasn’t comprehended that their moderations are serving the mafia propaganda campaign and stifling pro-Ukrainian efforts. Once an idiot, always an idiot.
