From my understand there was no military target here, it was people leaving a religious gathering.
Blatant terrorism
There was a drone exhibit announced in this theater
I hope you are just providing information and not implying the attack was legitimate
I’m not justifying, I’m explaining the choice of target.
Also, as far as I understand, the victims were mostly unrelated to the exhibition.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
“I am sure our soldiers will give a response to Russia for this terrorist attack,” President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said in his nightly video address, delivered early on Sunday at the end of a visit to Sweden.
Zelenskiy said the strike on Chernihiv, a city of leafy boulevards and centuries-old churches about 145 km (90 miles) north of Kyiv, coincided with the Orthodox holiday of the Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord.
People leaving church and others passing by were among those hurt when the missile hit the theatre, where a meeting was taking place, Chaus said.
Law enforcement agencies were looking into how Russians became aware of the event, which he said included business and community representatives but Ukrainian media reported involved drone manufacturers.
An event organizer said all the participants, including engineers, members of the military and volunteers, were asked to go to an air raid shelter in the theatre when the alarm sounded, but some people went outside.
“All those who took shelter remained safe,” Maria Berlinska, a co-founder of the Dignitas Fund, whose fundraising includes money for drones for the frontline, said in a Facebook post.
