As many as 60 Ukrainians were feared dead on Sunday after a Russian bomb flattened a school sheltering about 90 people in its basement in the eastern region of Luhansk, Ukrainian officials said.

Meanwhile, US first lady Jill Biden made an unannounced visit to western Ukraine on Sunday for a surprise Mother’s Day meeting with her Ukrainian counterpart Olena Zelenska. On Saturday, Ukraine's Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk said that all women, children and elderly people had been evacuated from the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol — a port city that's incurred massive amounts of damage throughout the invasion.
