At least 20 people have been killed and 50 injured following Russian missile attacks on cities across Ukraine, including one which struck the country's largest children's hospital in Kyiv, according to Ukrainian Internal Affairs Minister Igor Klymenko.

Klymenko also said that Dnipro, Kryvyi Rih, and Donetsk Oblast were hit by Russian strikes.

"More than 40 missiles of various types" were used in the attack, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

"Russian terrorists have once again launched a massive missile attack on Ukraine," he said, adding that "all services are engaged to rescue as many people as possible.

The Associated Press reported that Monday morning's rush-hour attacks were partly carried out using Kinzhal hypersonic missiles – one of the most advanced Russian weapons which flies at 10 times the speed of sound, making it a challenge to intercept...

Just like their pals Hamas, Russia has no qualms about attacking civilians and hospitals ... and deliberately during rush hour, to maximize deaths

And now their FR apologists will try to blame somebody else, as usual ...

Russia is truly desperate to end this war before Trump gets in office!!

The war could stop tomorrow - the Russians just have to go home.

Can anyone “fact check” this? The ukranian government has a tendency to be dishonest.

Yup everybody is fabricating the pictures and video, even western reporters, because ruZZians would never target civilians in Ukraine. Okay

Yup, there is no difference between countries invading their neighbors for territorial conquest, and those just defending themselves. Amazing

You realize that propaganda is a major weapon in war. And Zelenski and Biden and the entire military-industrial complex stand to gain from continuing this war.

And there's another logical error implied in your statement. You don't know that Russia "targeted civilians" even if this event actually happened. You're jumping to conclusions.

Let me add, I not saying this story is fabricated and I'm not saying it isn't.

It's just that in war, you cannot always believe what you read.

Oh NO! Not the children again!! As with most wars propaganda is paramount in the success of winning the hearts and minds of the smerfs regardless of the authenticity. Now to actually win wars the ultimate victor must break the will of the invaded general population where they will turn against their own government. Does that mean there will be civilian casualties? Sure does. Wars are messy, wars are dirty and people are clueless about the conduct of war while not having the stomach or comprehension of what it takes to be the victor. On a side note, what does the Ukraine have to do with our national security other than being the piggy bank for politicians?

Sure, its the only reason this war is continuing, the "military-industrial complex" and Biden stands to gain. Putin has nothing to gain?

45+ countries are sending military weapons to Ukraine, not because Putin has gone rogue, by trashing numerous treaties in his attempted conquest of a European neighbor, but because of "propaganda" and the "military-industrial complex". Okay

We are supplying weapons to the enemy(Ukraine) of our enemy(Russia), which has led to the destruction of half the Russian military, without the injury or loss of one US soldier, while sending a warning to China on Taiwan.

Most likely a false flag. Biden and his corrupt cohorts in Ukraine probably did it.

Did I say the ONLY reason this war is continuing is "the "military-industrial complex" and Biden stands to gain."

You fabricated that.

Given the ease with which you fabricate to make a point, you might qualify for a job at Newsweek.
