Shelling of the hospital in Kherson by the Russian Armed Forces: Zelenskyi spoke about the condition of the injured children

Share: As a result of the morning attack of the Russian Armed Forces on the children's hospital in Kherson, the building of the medical institution was seriously damaged, and among the staff and child patients there are victims. The youngest injured child is eight years old. Her mother and brother were also injured, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi said. According to him, there were about a hundred people in the building at the time of the impact. "They couldn't know where they were hitting.

This is a deliberate Russian attack specifically on children, specifically on medical personnel, specifically on the basic guarantees of life in society," the head of state said. He emphasized that Russia is not even ashamed of considering such objects as targets. "Currently, Russia is the largest terrorist organization in the world, which is not just prolonging its terrorist war, but is also trying to do everything to prevent any possibility of ending the war.

Russia is deliberately undermining every meaningful diplomatic effort, discrediting those who help in the protection of life, trying to create new sources of destabilization in Europe in order to make it difficult for Europeans to help Ukraine," he emphasized. Zelensky added that the Russians are "increasing the arrogance and scale of strikes" against the backdrop of US peacekeeping efforts, and emphasized that nothing but pressure and force will stop them.

"Now it was the right step of America - strong sanctions against Russian oil companies. And exactly such steps are needed in the future to defeat Russian arrogance, deprive them of the opportunity to prolong the war and create a real motive for Moscow to end this war. Terrorists should be treated only as they deserve - forcefully and fairly," he is sure. It will be recalled that the enemy shelled the children's hospital with artillery around 09:20.
