French Ambassador Gaël Veyssiere wrote about his visit to Okhmatdyt after the attack, stressing that Russia will be held responsible for its attacks on civilian infrastructure.

Italian Ambassador Carlo Formosa, who recently started a mission to Ukraine, also visited the hospital and condemned Russia's "barbaric and cowardly actions".

"My condolences to the families of the victims: we stand with Ukraine," he added, sharing a video with foreign ambassadors at Okhmatdyt.

Large-scale Russian airstrikes this morning killed at least 37 people and injured 170 in the city of Kyiv and Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

The United States and the European Union support the investigation of the strike on the Okhmatdyt hospital as a war crime committed by Russia.
