Escalating Assaults on Ukrainian Cities Are Taking an Enormous Toll

At least 30 people were killed in a Russian strike on a commuter bus in eastern Ukraine, officials said. This is the latest in a series of escalating assaults on Ukrainian cities, taking a heavy toll on civilians.

The attack on the bus in Kramatorsk, a city in the Donetsk region, comes a day after a Russian strike on an apartment building in the city of Kremenchuk killed 22 people. This strike was far behind the combat zone, highlighting the growing reach of Russian attacks.
