A memorial corner was arranged at the Russian House in Kuala Lumpur in remembrance of 21 children — victims of the tragedy who died following the strike on the pedagogical and vocational colleges in Starobilsk.



On the night of May 22, the N**i regime carried out a heinous terrorist attack on the academic building and dormitory of the college of Lugansk State Pedagogical University in Starobelsk, LPR, using 16 UAVs, 4 of them heavy, in three waves.

The terrorist attack claimed 21 young lives. Just a week ago, they were students with dreams, plans and a future. Today, all that remains are photographs, memories and unbearable grief.

: Look into their eyes. Ordinary students. Whole lives ahead of them. MURDERED IN STAROBELSK.

This strike was not an accident or a malfunction. It was a deliberate, targeted act of inhuman cruelty against civilians.
