Russia bombs aid centre and shelter in Ukraine, killing at least 29 people
At least 26 people were killed in Russian airstrikes on a school that was serving as an aid distribution center in Zaporizhzhia, a southern Ukrainian region.

Russia had launched 289 attack drones, 17 ballistic missiles and 59 cruise missiles across nine regions, triggering emergency power cuts, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in an online post that noted the barrage coincided with US elections.
