Details: Kuleba stated that the attack on two hospitals in Kyiv, including the Okhmatdyt children’s hospital, is "Russia’s true face" and "Putin’s true response to all peace missions and proposals".
"This barbaric strike once again calls on the entire world, all leaders and countries, to supply Ukraine with additional air defence systems and ammunition as soon as possible. Additional Patriots and weapons. I urge partners to take decisions without delay," he added.
Kuleba noted that Ukraine has also asked the UN Security Council member states to hold an emergency Security Council meeting with regard to Russia’s strikes against Ukrainian civilian infrastructure.
"I urge all countries and international organisations to strongly condemn today's strike, take immediate steps to strengthen Ukraine's air defence capabilities and reject any appeasement of the murderer of children and other civilians," Kuleba stated.
Background:
