Russian bombing kills 24 in Ukraine

Russian forces bombed a school in a village in Ukraine's southeastern Zaporizhzhia region on Monday, killing 24 people, Ukraine's emergency services said.

The emergency services said two members of a rescue crew were among the dead in the village of Komyshuvakha.

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, writing on Telegram, said Russian forces initially dropped aerial bombs on a school in the village, used for distributing humanitarian assistance.

"After the first air strike, there was a repeat strike with nine more bombs, directly on the shelter where people were gathered," Zelenskiy wrote.

"The Russians could not have been unaware that every week residents who have remained in Komyshuvakha were receiving assistance right there. This is yet further proof that Russia does not want any kind of de-escalation, any real justice."
