Zhovnir’s direct speech: “In the evening, a rocket was shot down over Ohmatdyt. There was such a powerful explosion that it knocked out the door in the central building, damaged the windows on the ninth floor. Thank God, the children were not injured. We kept them in a bomb shelter.

Now we are evacuating ... We have taken a lot of children with oncopathology.  We also plan to take out the children on dialysis.”

Details: According to the general director of the hospital, now there are also many children in the department where heart operations are performed. They must be evacuated: a convoy is being formed that will go to western Ukraine.

Another doctor Ohmatdyt said that due to the blockade of the enemy, doctors cannot provide assistance to wounded children in settlements near Kyiv

Vysotsky’s direct language: “In Europe, in a European city, we received three requests for the evacuation of seriously wounded children with gunshot wounds in a day. Two of them did not survive that night. Precisely because they did not have the physical ability to get specialized assistance. And one of them, the father will take out on his own, because it is impossible to get there. How to describe this, by European standards ... I don’t even know.”
