A Russian airstrike on a school in eastern Ukraine over the weekend has killed at least 60 people, according to Ukrainian authorities.
The attack happened Saturday in the village of Bilohorivka in the Luhansk region. The governor of the region said about 90 people were using the school as a shelter when it was hit, and only 27 emerged rubble alive on Saturday. Ukrainian officials and the United Nations secretary-general have condemned the bombing as an attack on civilians.
“As a result of the Russian airstrike at Bilohorivka, Luhansk region, about 60 people were killed,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Sunday. “Civilians who simply hid in the school from the shelling. It was a targeted strike at the school. Another crime of the occupiers.”
