"We extend our condolences to the Ukrainian families of the victims of the Russian attack on a bus near Sumy. Their deaths — immediately after peace talks — reveal the true intentions of the Kremlin," the post states.

Early on Saturday, May 17, Russian invaders launched a strike using a Lancet UAV on a passenger bus near Bilopillia in the Sumy region. The attack killed nine people and injured seven others.
