It is currently impossible to remove 60 people, most likely dead, from the rubble of the school in Bilohirivka, which was bombed by Russian invaders on May 7.

"We all see now how Russia pursues the ‘liberation of Donbas’ by destroying everything. The day before yesterday, a bomb hit a school where people were sheltering from the shelling. We can't even remove 60 people from the rubble as the spot is under constant fire," Head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration Serhiy Haidai posted on Telegram.

According to Haidai, the situation in Luhansk region is still tough, all Ukraine-controlled settlements of the region are under fire. Bilohirivka is being shelled most.

As reported, Russian troops dropped an air bomb on a school in Bilohirivka, where about 90 people were sheltering. Of them, 27 people, including seven injured, were rescued. Two dead bodies were removed. About 60 people are most likely dead.

According to the Head of the Luhansk Regional Military Administration, there is almost no hope that someone survived under the rubble. The building didn't just collapse and the basement crash down. The bomb exploded inside, a fire broke out and the temperature was critical, no oxygen was left.

Bilohirivka is a village near Lysychansk, which the Russian troops are trying to assault.
