Ukraine foreign minister Andriy Sybiha said Russian terror attacks are occurring daily, citing a morning FPV drone strike on a passenger bus in Nikopol region that killed at least five and wounded seven, and a separate attack on the Kyiv–Mykolaiv passenger train from which passengers and staff evacuated. He called for sustained and escalating international pressure: each new attack should prompt fresh sanctions targeting Russian revenues, technology, production and supply chains, and systematic disruption of Russia’s war machine, production and financing. Sybiha said Ukraine urgently needs more air-defence systems and interceptors and warned that if Moscow escalates, pressure on Russia must escalate accordingly.
