KYIV: A lawyer spent two hours in a school shelter with her son after air raid sirens cut short morning drop-off. 👇
Russia hit a school, a hospital and a bridge in the Ukrainian capital as strikes intensify across the city.
Mayor Vitali Klitschko told residents they can no longer pretend normal life continues during the bombardment.
Would you send your child to school under air raid warnings?
◆ Why it matters
Kyiv has lived through three years of war, but Moscow is now targeting the capital with enough frequency and civilian infrastructure that parents are forced into shelters during school drop-off. Klitschko’s warning signals a shift from managing the war at a distance to accepting it has arrived at the doorstep. Russia gains nothing militarily from hitting a school, which means the goal is breaking morale before any negotiation.
