Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy denounced a Russian-launched missile attack that partially destroyed a children’s hospital in Kyiv as part of a barrage of strikes across the country that killed at least 36 people.
Ukraine’s Air Force said 30 of 38 missiles were intercepted in the attack, with damage caused by the remaining missiles and from falling debris. In the capital, images emerged of crowds outside the Okhmatdyt pediatric hospital in the city center trying to remove rubble from the scene. The missile struck a building where children were undergoing dialysis, Zelenskiy said.
