Dozens killed in Russian strike on Ukrainian aid center

Russia used a glide bomb weighing over 6,000 pounds to strike a former underground school being used as a shelter and humanitarian aid center in southeastern Ukraine on November 2, a CNN analysis found. The ‘double-tap’ strike killed dozens of people who had taken cover there after an attack less than an hour earlier.
