Russia attacks school near Odesa, kills two
The Russian military targeted a school in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, Odesa Oblast, killing two people and injuring at least 14, Odesa regional governor Oleh Kiper said on June 23.
According to a statement from the State Emergency Service,
two teenagers were among the injured. First responders are still looking to see
if anyone remains trapped under the rubble.
The school was struck by two ballistic missiles, just one day after the annual graduation ceremony held there. According to Kiper, about 18 people were inside at the time of the attack. Among the injured were two 11th-grade students.
“Adults from the teaching staff could still be under the rubble,” Kiper wrote in a Telegram post.
“Thankfully, the children were on summer break, so there were no students in the facility.”
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
