Four individuals were injured in a shocking incident at a school in the Urals, where a student armed with a hammer attacked fellow students and a teacher. The attack took place at School Number 68 in Chelyabinsk, prompting an immediate response from local authorities. Regional governor Alexei Teksler announced the emergency situation on Telegram, revealing that the attacker, a 13-year-old boy, was also found with a knife and a pistol. This alarming event has raised serious questions about school security, leading Teksler to order a comprehensive review of safety measures across all schools in the region.
In a separate but equally distressing event, a Russian aerial attack on a residential building in Kharkiv, Ukraine, has resulted in one fatality and left at least 40 others injured. The strike, which occurred on Sunday, has left many residents trapped under the rubble, with ongoing search and rescue operations. Ukrainian officials, including the head of Kharkiv's military administration, Oleh Syniehubov, reported that among the injured were children, and the impact caused significant destruction to the building and surrounding infrastructure. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called for increased military support from international allies, emphasizing the need for decisive action to combat the ongoing terror inflicted by Russian forces.
