The source frames the meeting around the human cost of the war and a pattern that a senior UN aid official said "defies" international law. Kyiv denied that it targeted the civilian building.

According to news reports cited in the source, Ukraine said it struck a Russian military drone command headquarters instead. The source provides no independent verification of the competing claims.

It does confirm that the Security Council session was convened specifically to address Russia's complaint and the reported consequences of the strike in occupied Luhansk.
