CNN’s review of exclusive police bodycam footage, weapon fragments, eyewitness testimony and geolocated videos shows that the bombing was part of a “double tap” attack and involved a massive bunker-busting bomb. The attack in southeastern Ukraine killed more than 50 people – who had gathered to receive food and and aid – many of whom had taken cover after an earlier strike. It was the deadliest Russian strike on Ukraine in 2026 and is believed to rank among the deadliest of the war.
