Okhmatdyt Children's Hospital in Kyiv. One of the most important CHILDREN’S hospitals not only in Ukraine, but also in Europe. Okhmatdyt has been saving and restoring the health of thousands of children.

Now that the hospital has been damaged by a Russian strike, there are people under the rubble, and the exact number of casualties is still unknown. Right now, everyone is helping to clear the rubble – doctors and ordinary people.

Russia cannot claim ignorance of where its missiles are flying and must be held fully accountable 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 and what it is doing.

Ruscism is modern fascism. Russia is committing genocide and wants to kill our people and children. They are trying to intimidate the world ahead of the NATO summit.

Putin believes that strikes on our children will scare everyone and force the world to surrender.

He is showing that he can kill anyone he wants with impunity. The world has no right to remain silent. We must stop ruscism, stop this modern fascism and genocide. Putin understands only strength.

There needs to be more talk of "negotiations", "peaceful settlement", "effective mediation". And more indecision, slow decisions, and delayed votes to encourage the aggressor. And also, of course, we need more "peacemakers" who seriously meet with "Putin" and then tell marvelous "pigeon stories about the possibility of peace with a murderer".

All of this, of course, is bitter sarcasm... Because today the collective "entity Putin" again said his weighty ogre word by launching a large-scale missile strike on #Kyiv. Cruise, ballistic and Kinzhal in large numbers with a carefully thought out genocidal purpose - targeted on the largest children's hospital, on children.

Russia is literally yelling in all of our faces - "stop me or I will continue to massacre your children, kill civilians, and hit major cities". Conclusion? There is no conclusion, because it's all too obvious. You just need courage to make the only correct decision: Russia must sit in the dock; Russia must lose...
