Zelensky added that the Okhmatdet hospital has now been damaged by a Russian strike, there are people under the rubble, and the exact number of wounded and dead is still unknown.

“Right now, everyone is helping to clear the rubble: doctors, ordinary people. Russia cannot help but know where its missiles are flying, and must fully answer for all its crimes: against people, against children, against humanity in general. It is very important that the world does not remain silent about this now, and that everyone sees what Russia is, what it is doing,” he wrote.

  1. Comment on L.I. from Alina Pereverzieva:

    “The main conclusion: Russians are allowed to hit children’s hospitals in Ukraine.

    Ukraine is not allowed to strike deep into Russia at airfields and weapons depots aimed at hitting children’s hospitals in Ukraine.

    Ok, got it.”

    • Its sickening. I was watching the White House press briefing with Admiral Kirby today. He wanted to talk about Ukraine and what happened there but the journos kept asking about Gaza……
