Summary
Russian forces struck a school used as a humanitarian aid distribution point and a nearby shelter in the village of Komyshuvakha, Zaporizhzhia region, Ukraine, killing 26 people and injuring five, according to Ukrainian officials. Among the dead were a police officer and two State Emergency Service rescuers. Reports say around 27 people were listed as missing, and rescue work was slowed by Russian drones over the area. Buildings were reduced to smouldering rubble, and black smoke rose over the site. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the strike as a terrorist attack and said Russia was not interested in de-escalation. The attack came shortly after a local ceasefire in Kherson expired. The Kremlin has not confirmed the strike and said no similar missions were planned. Accounts differ on the number of missing and on how many bombs were used.
