Hundreds of people were sheltering underground when the theatre was bombed by Russia, ripping the building apart, according to the Ukrainian authorities.

In a televised address, human rights commissioner Lyudmyla Denisova said rescue work is ongoing at the site and there are still 1,300 people in the basement.
