60 people confirmed killed at school bombed by Russians
Volodymyr Zelenskiy confirmed late Sunday what many had feared but were hoping would not be true: 60 people who were sheltering in the Bilohorivka school that Russian forces bombed this weekend were killed in the attack.
About 90 people had been sheltering in that school at the time of the attack, Qazet.az reports according to Reuters.
António Guterres, secretary-general of the United Nations, issued a statement Sunday saying he was “appalled” by the attack on the school.
“This attack is yet another reminder that in this war, as in so many other conflicts, it is civilians that pay the highest price,” said Stéphane Dujarric, spokesman for the secretary-general.
