16.12.2025 ⇢ The Day of the Moscow Region School Stabbing
⌨The day's editorial focus significantly shifted from early morning reports dominated by Trump's statements on Ukraine and European security guarantees for Kyiv. While some outlets continued to report on military actions in Ukraine and planned troop deployments, a major domestic story quickly took precedence.
Mid-morning, Russian media became entirely consumed by reports of a school attack in the Moscow region. A teenager, identified as a ninth-grader, entered a school in Gorki-2 with a knife, killing a 10-year-old child and wounding others. Initial reports detailed the incident, the attacker's questioning of students' nationality, and subsequent arrest, with later updates confirming his confession and the victims' hospitalization. This event largely overshadowed all other news throughout the day, including the Supreme Court's decision on the Dolina apartment dispute later in the afternoon.
