Ukraine says the death toll from a Russian strike in the Zaporizhzhia region has reached 40, according to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
The strike hit a school building in the settlement of Komyshuvakha, Zelenskyy said, and dozens more people are feared trapped under the rubble. Anadolu Agency had earlier reported rescue work entering a third day after a strike on an aid centre in the region, with many people still listed as missing.
Why it matters: the rising toll shows how civilian sites far from the front line keep bearing the heaviest cost, and why rescue figures move for days after a single strike.
