On 17 May 2022, an airstrike by the Russian Air Force hit a military barracks in Desna, Chernihiv Oblast, Ukraine.

Aftermath

Ukrainian authorities initially reported that eight people had died and twelve were wounded,[1] but updated the casualty count a week later when Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that 87 bodies had been recovered.[2][3] Russian officials said that the military had used "high-precision, long-range missiles."[3] It was reportedly the largest single loss of life in the Ukrainian military in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine up to that point.[4]

In November 2023, the Ukrainian Memory Book Group [uk] reported by name the updated toll of the attack to 63 killed, 68 officially missing and 39 wounded.[5]
