Ukraine’s Ministry of Health shows consequences of attack on hospital and children's playground in Kupiansk
Russian occupiers attacked a hospital and a playground in Kupiansk, Kharkiv Oblast, on 25 November.
Russian missiles hit a local hospital and a playground, the Ministry of Health reports.
"This morning, they struck Kupiansk again. They fired S-300 missiles.
Fortunately, there were no casualties. The children haven't gone outside to play at the time, and the hospital has stopped working as an inpatient hospital due to threats," the Ministry of Health states.
Last year, Kupiansk hospital underwent major repairs, the Ministry said.
The hospital had a neurological, surgical, cardiology, traumatology, gynaecology, diagnostic units, as well an emergency and emergency medical care departments.
The hospital served the city itself and the Kupiansk district, taking care of about 120,000 people.
"The main thing is that there are no casualties. We will restore the concrete and equipment.
Reconstruction is only a matter of time, and incomparably less than the time it will take generations of non-humans to wash off this shame," the Ministry of Health said.
Earlier, the Russian occupiers fired at a maternity hospital in Vilniansk, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, killing a two-day-old baby.
Two doctors were pulled out from under the rubble, Viktor Liashko said. After the tragedy, he emotionally addressed the World Health Organisation and the Russian Minister of Health.
