Russian bomb kills 50-plus at Ukrainian shelter during food aid distribution

More than 50 people were killed when Russia struck a school shelter with a guided bomb during humanitarian aid distribution.

The school in Komyshuvakha served as an aid distribution point when Russia struck it with a guided bomb. More than 50 people were inside, gathered for bread and hygiene kits.

The attack was a double tap. Russia struck a second time after first responders and villagers had moved into the school following an earlier bombing.

Police body camera footage captured officers entering the shelter and the blast. Experts identified the weapon as a FAB-3000.

This Russian guided bomb weighs more than 6,000 pounds and carries more than 3,000 pounds of explosives.
