Details
As the official noted, the Russians deliberately targeted civilian transport and the people who were there. Among the injured are two children aged 8 and 15.
Two injured are in serious condition – a child and an adult. Doctors are fighting for their lives. Everyone is provided with the necessary assistance
At the same time, information appeared in the media that this happened on the Sumy-Bilopillia highway.
Restrictions apply on this section of the road. This is a zone of increased danger, which the enemy has repeatedly attacked with drones
He clarified: a scheme for passenger transport movement has been developed and approved to bypass dangerous roads.
In addition, alternative, safer routes have been identified and communicated to carriers.
Ignoring such requirements creates risks to people's lives and can have tragic consequences. Irresponsibility in matters of safety is unacceptable. All circumstances of the incident are currently being investigated, and I am confident that law enforcement agencies will give it a proper assessment
