Russian Bombing Kills Dozens at Ukrainian Aid Centre in Zaporizhzhia Region

Russian Bombing Kills Dozens at Ukrainian Aid Centre in Zaporizhzhia RegionPreviousNext

A Russian bombing on November 6 struck an aid distribution centre and shelter in Komyshuvakha, Zaporizhzhia region, Ukraine, killing at least 40 people with dozens missing. The underground school building, near the frontline, served as a humanitarian hub. Rescue efforts continue amid a large blast crater. Ukraine and Russia deny targeting civilians; Russia claims it targeted military units. The attack follows a recently expired US-brokered ceasefire and precedes planned Ukraine-Russia talks in Abu Dhabi.
