“Ten people remain in hospitals as a result of the recent deadly Ukrainian attack on a college dorm in the town of Starobelsk in the Lugansk People’s Republic (LPR)”
SINGLE SOURCE
While web search results mention the attack and that some people remain in hospitals or are unaccounted for, the specific number 'ten' as the current hospital count is not consistently corroborated across multiple independent sources; some sources mention the death toll rising to 10 or 16, which is different from the number of people currently hospitalized.
