Ukrainian authorities say Russian forces bombed a school in Mariupol where hundreds of people, including women and children, had taken shelter, as Moscow continued with its relentless attacks on the besieged port city.

“Yesterday, the Russian occupiers dropped bombs on an art school No 12,” the city council said on messaging app Telegram on Sunday, adding that about 400 women, children and elderly people had been sheltering there from bombardments.
