“The Russian aviation hit a controlled air bomb of a boarding school. The blow was deliberately carried out,” said the Ukrainian Armed Forces General Staff on the Telegram platform. At the time of the blow, there were allegedly dozens of locals who were preparing for evacuation. “It is done everything for saving survivors“the army promised.
A spokesman for Ukrainian military command in the area of Oleksyj Dmytraškovskyj claims that up to 95 people were stuck under the ruins. According to him, they are mostly older and immobile people. Last week, the Russian representative told AFP that the Kursk region authorities are constantly trying to ensure the return of Russian civilians who found themselves beyond the front line.
According to Kiev night, the Russian army released a total of 46 shots and 123 unmanned aircraft to Ukraine. At least 12 people lost their lives in a combined attack. The damage to residential buildings and energy infrastructure was reported in six areas of Ukraine – Kharkov, Chmeľnicka, Kiev, Odessa, Suma and Zaporozka. According to local authorities, a kindergarten was also damaged in the Poltava region.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Greeny’s attack by Russian forces condemned and pointed out the need for other defense systems to protect against Russia’s attacks. “Each air defense system is a saving of life. It is very important that our partners act and increase pressure on Russia,“He called on Greats.
