Four people were killed in Sudzha, a Russian town held by Ukraine, in a strike both countries blamed on each other. The Ukrainian authorities said two airstrikes a day earlier had killed at least 18 civilians. A military spokesman in the area says four of those people have been killed. "They destroyed the building even though dozens of civilians were there," President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine said in a social media post. Sudzha, a small town near the Ukrainian border in Russia's western Kursk region, was captured by Kyiv’s forces during a cross-border assault last summer. Since Russia’s invasion began nearly three years ago, more than 12,300 civilians have Ukrainian emergency services are still searching through the rubble left by the missile strike the day before. The strike in Poltava rekindled memories of a previous attack, in September, on a military academy that killed 50 people. Russian missiles had hit the academy minutes after air-raid alarms blared.
