Update on Ukraine invasion
262 children have been killed and 467 injured, according to the latest figures from Verkhovna Rada, Qazet.az reports according to the Ukrainian parliament.
Those figures are not final, the parliament said on Telegram:
Work is underway to establish them in places of active hostilities, in the temporarily occupied and liberated territories.
The true number is likely significantly higher. In parts of Ukraine that are occupied or under active attack by Russia, local authorities have said it is impossible to clear bodies from the street, or count the numbers of citizens killed or injured.
The parliament said 1938 schools or educational facilities had been damaged by bombing, and 182 were completely destroyed.
