Children’s hospital hit in Kyiv as missile strikes across Ukraine kill at least 24
Standard UK ^ | 7/8/2024 | JOHN DUNNE

At least 24 people were killed on Monday after Russia launched a massive missile attack against cities across Ukraine, including on a children’s hospital.

In the capital, Kyiv, at least ten people were killed in a rare daytime attack.

The Okhmatdyt children’s hospital, Ukraine’s biggest children’s medical facility, was hit in the attack, according to reports. There was no immediate word on casualties there.

At least 10 people were killed in the central Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih, with three killed in the eastern town of Pokrovsk and one in Dnipro.

The attacks included Kinzhal hypersonic missiles, one of the most advanced Russian weapons, the Ukrainian air force said.

The Kinzhal flies at 10 times the speed of sound, making it hard to intercept. City buildings shook from the blasts.

At the children's hospital, a two-story building was partly destroyed. On the hospital's main 10-story building, windows and doors were blown out and walls were blackened. Blood spattered the floor in one room.

Medical personnel and local people helped shift the rubble as they searched for children and medical workers who could be trapped underneath. Volunteers formed a line, passing stones and debris to each other. Smoke still rose from the building, and volunteers and emergency crews worked in protective masks.

The attack forced the hospital to shut down and evacuate. Some mothers carried their children away on their backs. Others waited in the courtyard with their children as calls to doctors' phones rang unanswered.

An entire section of a residential multistory building in one district of Kyiv was destroyed, officials said. Three electricity substations were damaged or completely destroyed in two districts of Kyiv, energy company DTEK said. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia had targeted five cities with more than 40 missiles of different types.

Looks like another CIA/Deep State directed hit, for public effect, to support the continued Ukraine money-laundering capital of the world.

More billions funneled from U.S. taxpayers, and military manufacturing, too. Eisenhower was sure spot-on.

A week ago, the Zeepers were rejoicing about Ukraine dropping bombs on beach goers in Crimea. I said then, that Russia would not stand idly by as their civilians are attacked, and to expect a response.

The killing on BOTH sides MUST stop! The tragedy is that Slavs are being murdered while the filthy evil Biden CIA and neocons encourage more bloodshed on Russians and Ukrainians.

Washington DC is pushing all out for WW3. They want it badly.
