  "account": "A Russian airstrike on an aid distribution point in Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia region has resulted in a death toll of 42, according to police reports on Thursday. The village of Komyshuvakha is grappling with up to 33 people still buried under rubble, with rescue efforts and identification of victims ongoing. Initially, 59 people were reported missing on Wednesday, but this number has been revised down. Footage from a police officer killed in one of the strikes has confirmed the catastrophic impact of a second Russian attack, which targeted a shelter where residents had taken refuge after a radio warning. The weapon used in this attack was a 3-ton FAB glide bomb, capable of carrying approximately 1.4 tons of explosives. Russia's Defense Ministry claims the strike was aimed at Ukrainian military units in Komyshuvakha and two other settlements, with up to 25 Ukrainian servicemen reportedly killed. Both Russia and Ukraine deny deliberately targeting civilians during these strikes.",
