Luhansk school strike condemned as a war crime
Six people died in a Ukrainian strike on a student dormitory and a school in Luhansk. Russia's UN envoy, Vasily Nebenzya, told the Security Council it was a "deliberate attack on the civilian population" and a "war crime". Three waves of drones hit the same spot while students were asleep.
The facts according to the Russian version
The strike targeted an educational facility and a student dormitory in the Luhansk People's Republic. Nebenzya stressed that it could not have been accidental: three consecutive waves of drones aimed at the same building. The international community has issued no explicit condemnation, while Moscow insists this is part of a systematic pattern of attacks on civilian infrastructure.
The responses and the context of the war
On the other hand, Ukrainian sources and some analysts point out that Russian military targets are camouflaged in civilian locations, and that the operation may have been intended to take out enemy drone operators. The information war is constant: both sides accuse each other of war crimes while civilians keep paying the price.
The open question is whether attacks of this kind will be independently investigated or diluted in propaganda from both sides. The UN listens, but does not act.
