They targeted ​a minibus which carried people ​going about their daily business," Mykola Lukashuk, the head ​of the Dnipropetrovsk region council, said. There was no immediate comment from Russia on the attack. Both Ukraine and Russia deny deliberately ⁠targeting civilians in the war, triggered by Moscow's full-scale ⁠invasion ​of its neighbour in 2022. (FRANCE 24 with Reuters)
