Ukraine war: Russia destroys hospital in latest missile attack

At least two people have been killed and 23 injured in a missile strike on a medical clinic in the eastern Ukrainian city of Dnipro, the regional governor says.

Of the 23 injured, 21 are in hospital and three are in a serious condition.

Two boys aged three and six were also among the wounded, governor Serhiy Lysak said.

Russian strikes on Ukraine have intensified in recent weeks ahead of an expected Ukrainian counteroffensive.

Mr Zelensky posted a video of the damaged clinic that showed firefighters at the scene and smoke billowing from the building.

"Russian terrorists once again confirm their status of fighters against everything humane and honest," he said.

“it may come as a surprise to some people, but Russia has been there already.”

WE are the (neo) Marxists now.

How much of the hospital was full of Ukrainian armament they are well known to hide there?

Evil Ruzzians did it. They must be stopped here at this place o they will roll over all of Europe. This one act is reason enough for Congress to declare war on Russia and Iran. We need to send all we have to win back Ukraine from Ruzzian devils. We need to bring back the Draft and enlist all between ages of 17 and 24 to serve—women too! New Taxes and laws to prevent talk of Anti war people. All elections cancelled for the war! Biden President-for-Life. We must push Russia out of Ukraine and March on Moscow! They will fall apart like the cowards they are. One US Marine is equal to ten Ruzzian Conscripts. Six F-22s could take out the whole Rizzian Air force! Deport Trump to Russia!

“What kind of fools do you take us for?”

At least we can both agree you’re fools. What kind of fools remains to be determined.

“ That looks like it was an abandoned building.”
…………………………………………………………………………….
Most buildings that get hit by bombs look that way after the bomb hits. That’s the actual purpose of the bomb.

Unless we’re discussing Detroit where carpet bombing would be a visible improvement.
*******************************************

You really need to get out more often to war zones and depressed areas that have abandoned buildings. This HOAX hospital clearly was not in use and has had all of its windows (including frames) removed prior to this incident,

Putin isn't going to starve them all. What my Russian contacts tell me is that they've been going through the Bible looking for something that would be appropriate and they think they've found something:

"ISA 20:4 So shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians prisoners, and the Ethiopians captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, even with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.

I.E. strip them all naked, chain them together by the ankles, and frog march them through the territory so everybody can see how messed up they are.

What agency enforces building codes in a war zone? I ask as you think there’s some sort of standards for what can be used as a clinic or hospital in a war zone.

Yes it does appear to be an abandoned building.

Really? That’s your argument? This abandoned building was not suddenly abandoned in February 2022 but has clearly been out of use for many years.

Come on, Ukrainian propagandists are masters of their craft and this one was clearly not up to their usual standards. Maybe it was designed by a NOOB in their Ministry of Propaganda.

Even more, we need to draft the Grade School Trannies and Homos and their Public School Teachers and Administrators that are so much more wise than those stupid, backwards, homophobic parents.

They are wise to trust Nazi Governmental Authority, they'd make excellent NATO military conscripts, and fit right in.

Yes, and those 20,000 Poles shot themselves in the head at Katyn. The Kremlin lied about that for 50 years. Now they lie while committing another genocide of Ukrainians. Time after time. It’s always the same with Russia’s colonialist wars.

It’s typical bland Soviet-era construction.
