Police identify 30 of 55 bodies recovered from Komyshuvakha airstrike

Police in Zaporizhzhia Oblast say 30 of the 55 bodies recovered from rubble in Komyshuvakha have been identified. The search for further victims is continuing, and the final death toll remains unknown.

The village was struck by Russian aircraft on 2 November while residents were receiving aid at a school used as a humanitarian centre. Ukrainian authorities say bombs hit again as rescuers arrived, and a direct hit collapsed an underground shelter; regional police say 19 more bodies may remain beneath the rubble. The recovery operation is complicated by the threat of aerial bombs and drones.
