Russian Bombing of School in Kursk Leaves Four Dead, Dozens Trapped

The attack targeted a Ukrainian-controlled building used as a shelter for displaced civilians in the contested Kursk region.

A Russian-guided bomb struck a school-turned-shelter in Sudzha, Kursk, killing at least four and trapping 95 civilians, according to Ukrainian authorities.
The building housed primarily elderly and bedridden individuals, many of whom were preparing for evacuation at the time of the strike.
Ukrainian forces report ongoing rescue operations, with 84 survivors pulled from the rubble and some transferred for medical care.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russia of targeting civilians, sharing footage of the damaged site and calling for global action against such attacks.
The Kursk region has seen intense fighting since Ukraine's military offensive in August, with both sides reporting civilian casualties in ongoing clashes.
