Russian forces launched a devastating attack on a school in Komyshuvakha, Ukraine, turning it into a killing ground on Tuesday, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky. The building, which had been converted into a shelter and humanitarian aid distribution center, was hit by at least nine bombs, with at least 33 fatalities and 50 others still unaccounted for.
Local authorities claim the facility was built to withstand numerous strikes, but the immense force of the bombs caused the concrete structure to collapse, releasing a fire. The UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine stressed that the timing and location of the attack coincided with civilians gathering for aid, suggesting either the Russian forces knew about the humanitarian distribution or failed to exercise basic precautions before striking.
