Rescue operations end at Kyiv children’s hospital, at least 31 killed in capital overall.
The Okhmatdyt hospital, Ukraine’s largest children’s medical center, was hit during a Russian missile attack on July 8. The strike destroyed one building and damaged four others in the hospital, Health Minister Viktor Liashko said. The attack against the medical facility killed two people, including a doctor, and wounded 32 others. Eight children were hospitalized.
In total, at least 31 people, including four children, were killed in Kyiv as a result of the July 8 attack, officials said the following day. Another 10 children are among the 117 injured.
Over 600 patients and at least as many staff members were at the Okhmatdyt and the Ukrainian Center for Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, located near the hospital, at the moment of the attack with a Kh-101 cruise missile on a programmed route.
The hospital staff evacuated patients and visitors to the bunker as air raid warning sounded which prevented more people being killed and wounded.
