The bomb killed at least four people in a dormitory in a part of Russia’s Kursk region held by Kyiv forces.
Ukraine and Russia traded blame for a deadly missile strike on Saturday that killed at least four people in the dormitory of a boarding school situated in a part of Russia’s Kursk region held by Kyiv forces.
As of late on Saturday , 84 people had been rescued or had received medical assistance, the statement said. Four of the injured were in a serious condition. Rescue efforts to clear rubble were proceeding. “This is how Russia waged war against Chechnya decades ago. They killed Syrians the same way. Russian bombs destroy Ukrainian homes the same way.”
Ukraine military spokesman Oleksiy Dmytrashkivskyi had earlier said in a video posted on Facebook that nearly 100 people were under rubble at the site, which he said had housed mostly elderly and infirm people.
