On 7 May 2022, a school in Bilohorivka, Luhansk Oblast, was bombed by Russian forces during the Battle of Sievierodonetsk[1] in the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The death of at least two people was confirmed while authorities said the actual death toll was close to 60.[2]
About ninety people were sheltering inside the building's basement at the time,[3] which President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said was the majority of the village's population at that time.[1] The building was hit by a Russian airstrike, setting the building on fire and trapping large numbers of people inside.[4]
