MOSCOW, February 5. /TASS/. The Ukrainian army’s February 1 attack on a boarding school in the town of Sudzha in Russia’s Kursk Region claimed four lives and left nearly 90 people wounded with concussions, said Major General Apty Alaudinov, deputy chief of the Russian Armed Forces’ Main Military-Political Department and commander of the Akhmat special forces unit.
The Russian Defense Ministry reported earlier that on February 1, the Ukrainian armed forces had committed another war crime, carrying out a precision attack on a boarding school in Sudzha. Russia's air defense detected that the missiles had been launched from the Sumy Region.
"Just the other day, we witnessed a Ukrainian attack on a boarding school in Sudzha, where nearly 90 civilians were staying. As a result, almost all of them suffered concussions, and around four people were killed, according to opposing reports," Alaudinov said in a video on Telegram.
According to the general, when a missile attack comes, Russian troops are capable of figuring out "where the missile is coming from." "Our drones are constantly in the air, and some of our programs record all details of the launch. This is how we recorded their attack on the school in Sudzha," he added.
Alaudinov noted that the Ukrainian armed forces sought to divert attention from another crime they had committed, torturing, raping, and killing civilians in the settlement of Russkoye Porechnoye.
He emphasized that Ukraine’s Center for Information and Psychological Operations was trying to take advantage of Ukrainian forces’ attack in Sudzha in order to put the blame on Russia. Alaudinov warned against giving in to those provocations.
