Four Civilians Killed in Ukraine Assault on Kursk Amid Ceasefire Talks

Recent developments in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine have seen intensified military actions and diplomatic efforts for a ceasefire. Russian officials claim to have driven Ukrainian troops from the town of Sudzha in the Kursk region, coinciding with President Putin's visit to the area. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has urged Russia to accept a proposed 30-day ceasefire, warning of potential financial repercussions if they refuse. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed support for the ceasefire and the restoration of US military aid following talks in Saudi Arabia. However, the situation remains tense, as a Ukrainian attack reportedly resulted in the deaths of four civilians in the Kursk region, amidst ongoing Russian missile strikes causing casualties in Ukraine. As both military and diplomatic maneuvers continue, the fate of the ceasefire proposal hangs in the balance.
