22.05.2026 ⇢ The Day of the Starobilsk Dormitory Strike
⌨
The day was dominated by a Ukrainian drone strike on a college dormitory in Starobilsk, Luhansk region, which killed at least six and wounded dozens, including children. State-aligned outlets (TASS, RIA Novosti, Komsomolskaya Pravda) immediately framed it as a terrorist attack, with Putin condemning it and ordering the Defense Ministry to prepare a response. By evening, Russia requested an emergency UN Security Council meeting. Independent Meduza covered the strike but also reported on raids at the Institute of Philosophy. Earlier in the day, drone attacks on Moscow and Yaroslavl continued, with Putin reportedly halting public trips due to security concerns. The US approved a $100 million Hawk missile system sale to Ukraine, and Trump announced sending a representative to Putin's economic forum.
