In Kherson, on the afternoon of March 2, Russian troops dropped a drone on a minibus with passengers. One person was killed, and 10 others sustained injuries of varying degrees and were hospitalized.

The Kherson Regional Prosecutor's Office announced that a pre-trial investigation into the commission of a war crime (Part 2 of Article 438 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine) has been initiated. "Prosecutors together with investigators continue to document war crimes committed by the military of the Russian Armed Forces," the office said.

The head of the Military Investigative Department, Oleksandr Prokudin, clarified that a 53-year-old woman sustained fatal injuries.

Among the victims are men aged 19, 56, 58, 64 and 72 and women aged 58, 61 and 66, 69 and 73.

They were diagnosed with mine-blast traumas and shrapnel wounds (in particular, of the head, neck, forearms, chest, back, hips, hands, and shins).

Police said an enemy UAV once again attacked civilian transportation around noon.

"The enemy insidiously hit a shuttle bus at a bus stop in the Dniprovsky district of Kherson. After the explosion, the driver directed the bus to a medical facility so that the victims could receive the necessary assistance as soon as possible," law enforcement officials provided details.

One of the men is in serious condition.
