After drone attack on college dorm in Luhansk, rescue effort is ongoing – Screengrab Social Media/Telegram
Students are still believed to be trapped under the rubble as frantic rescue efforts continue.
Let me just say that if today’s Ukrainian attack on the college dorm in Russian-conquered Luhansk had been perpetrated by Moscow forces, you would be hearing about it in all news shows, non-stop, all day long.
Over 80 young people were in the dorm at the time of the drone attack.
So far, 6 students are reported dead and more than 35 wounded, many seriously. There are reportedly still people trapped in the rubble, as the rescue efforts continue.
All day long, the bloody MSM erected a wall of silence around this alleged war crime, until Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his military ‘to prepare options to retaliate against Ukraine’.
At least 4 people are dead as a result of the Ukrainian attack on a college dormitory in Starobelsk.
Due to the threat of a second attack, search and rescue operations have been suspended.

Reuters reported:
“Putin said the attack had struck the dorm in Starobilsk in Luhansk, a Russian-controlled region in eastern Ukraine. He said Kiev’s military must have known what it was targeting.
[…] ‘There are no military facilities, intelligence service facilities, or related services in the vicinity. Therefore, there is absolutely no basis for claiming that the munitions struck the building as a result of our air defense or electronic warfare systems. The strike was not accidental; it came in three waves, with 16 drones targeting the same location’, Putin told officials.”

Putin ordered the Russian military to develop options for retaliation.
RT reported:
“Here’s what Putin also said about the attack:
Fifteen people are still listed as missing; The strike ‘was not accidental’ and came in three waves, with 16 drones sent to the same target.
Kiev needs ‘crimes’ like the dormitory strike to distract from its “catastrophic” situation at the front and then blame Russia for the consequences.
Western aid to Ukraine is being regularly ‘stolen’ and forced mobilization sees people ‘caught on the streets like stray dogs and thrown to the front’.
Putin urged Ukrainian soldiers not to carry out ‘criminal orders’ from what he called an “illegitimate, corrupt junta in Kiev’.”
‘We understand making statements is not enough, the Ministry of Defense will also be making its RESPONSE’
