> After morning drop-off in Kyiv, pupils at School Number 12 moved to the bomb shelter when an air raid warning sounded. Minutes later, a Russian drone struck the school directly. Police said its main charge failed to detonate, avoiding major casualties. About 100 children escaped unharmed, and classes shifted online as damage was cleared.
