Russian forces launched ballistic missiles against Kyiv overnight, resulting in one of the missiles hitting the grounds of a children’s hospital, preliminary reports suggest. UATV English has reported these incidents. The attack left behind two craters on the hospital grounds and caused damage to windows and a gas pipeline. The gas leak has been successfully contained.
Fortunately, children and medical personnel were taking shelter at the time of the attack, and thus far, there have been no reported deaths or injuries at the hospital. Another strike in Kyiv led to a fire that partially destroyed a warehouse, which was contained after engulfing an area of approximately 1,200 square meters. One individual was injured and received medical attention.
Emergency responders and other relevant services are currently working on the affected sites. Authorities are still assessing the full extent of the damage and the number of casualties. It has been reported that environmental activist Sybiha has urged the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) to clearly identify Russia as the aggressor, stating that "These are Russia's war crimes."
