At least 24 people are dead and five more injured after multiple strikes on a Ukrainian school being used to distribute humanitarian aid.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Russia of deliberately targeting civilians.
Russia is yet to publicly comment on the attacks.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has accused Russian forces of bombing a school being used to distribute humanitarian aid in south-eastern Zaporihzhia region, killing 24 people and injuring five.
The strikes on Komyshuvakha in the Zaporizhzhia region come as Moscow resumed fighting and attacks on the neighbouring Kherson region after a rare local truce brokered to evacuate the Russian-occupied city of Oleshky.
Komyshuvakha was struck several times since early Monday, Mr Zelenskyy said on social media.
He added that the strikes "targeted a school used for humanitarian purposes — people were receiving humanitarian aid there."
"An utterly horrific Russian attack on the settlement of Komyshuvakha in the Zaporizhzhia region," he posted on X.
"Since this morning, the settlement has been hit several times by aerial bombs. The strikes targeted a school used for humanitarian purposes – people were receiving humanitarian aid there.
He added it was "further proof that Russia wants no de-escalation and no real justice".
Footage posted by Ukrainian emergency services shows a building reduced to piles of smouldering rubble and rescuers working at the site.
Among the killed are "a police officer and two State Emergency Service rescuers", regional governor Mykhailo Semikin said on Telegram.
"Five people have been wounded. Another 27 are considered missing," Mr Semikin said.
Mr Zelenskyy said the bombed building was where "every week, local residents who had remained in Komyshuvakha received humanitarian aid" and that "the Russians could not have been unaware" of that.
"After the humanitarian operation in Oleshky, there was a moment when the next steps could have shown that progress toward peace was possible. With these killings, Russia is sending an entirely opposite signal: Russia is counting on more killings," he said .
"This is further proof that Russia wants no de-escalation and no real justice," Mr Zelenskyy said.
