The bus, carrying a children's football team and accompanying adults, suffered one fatality and several injuries, prompting international attention and an emergency session of the UN Security Council. The incident led to diplomatic reactions, including calls for an international manhunt for the attackers and the establishment of a temporary shelter for victims in Гомель.
