A children’s hospital in Kyiv was sadly one of the victims of this incident, which claimed the lives of at least 36 people and injured over 140 more, including defenseless children [source]. The concentrated aircraft bombardment on the Ukrainian capital in recent months is exemplified by these strikes.

Global Disapproval and Ukrainian Resolve:

Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the president of Ukraine, reacted quickly and forcefully, denouncing the attacks as acts of “Russian terrorism” and promising a strong response. The world accepted President Zelensky’s condemnation.

To discuss these events, the UN Security Council will meet in an emergency session on Tuesday. Volker Türk, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, expressed his deep sadness over the senseless deaths of innocent people, particularly the children who were killed in the assault.
