MOSCOW/BUDAPEST (Worthy News) – Nearly a hundred people were feared to remain under debris early Sunday after Russian forces conducted an airstrike on a school building in the town of Sudzh in Russia’s Kursk region, killing at least four people, Ukraine’s military said.
Ukraine had gained control of Sudzha five months ago. The targeted building was serving as a shelter for dozens of civilians, primarily elderly individuals, who were preparing for evacuation, according to Ukrainian sources.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the bombing and added that the school was completely destroyed. He accused Russia of attacking its “own citizens,” as “They destroyed the building while dozens of civilians were inside.”
This is “how Russia waged war against [independence-seeking] Chechnya decades ago. They killed Syrians the same way. Russian bombs destroy Ukrainian homes the same way. And even against their own civilians, the Russian army uses similar tactics,” Zelenskyy wrote on social media platform X.
“This is a state devoid of civility. And this is an evil that will not stop on its own. But if we act strongly and decisively, even Russia can be forced to stop. And this must be done to ensure the world is safe from Russian bombs,” he told the world.
Ukrainian military’s chief described the airstrike on a school as “a deliberate assault” by Russia’s military and stressed that all available resources are being mobilized to rescue survivors.
There was no immediate independent verification of the casualties, and Russian authorities have yet to respond to the incident.
But it underscored broader concern about a war that is believed to have killed and injured some 1 million people since Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022.
