First responders in Kyiv worked tirelessly through the night, sifting through the rubble of a children’s hospital and other sites hit by Russian missiles on Monday. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed the ongoing rescue operations on social media, expressing his condolences to the families and friends of the 38 people reported dead, including four children.
The missile strike on the Okhmatdyt Children’s Hospital in Kyiv resulted in the transfer of at least 94 children, including eight who were injured, to other medical facilities, according to Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko. The wide-ranging aerial assault occurred just before a NATO summit in Washington, D.C., prompting strong condemnations from NATO countries and other Ukrainian allies.
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg described the strikes as “horrendous missile attacks against Ukrainian cities, killing innocent civilians including children.” He emphasized that NATO members would make decisions at the Washington summit to bolster the alliance’s support for Ukraine. President Joe Biden echoed these sentiments, calling the missile strikes a “horrific reminder of Russia’s brutality” and reaffirming the world’s commitment to stand with Ukraine. Biden also mentioned that NATO leaders would announce new measures to strengthen Ukraine’s air defenses.
UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy expressed his condolences and reiterated the UK’s unwavering support for Ukraine, calling for accountability for those responsible for the war. French Foreign Minister Stéphane Séjourné condemned the missile strikes as “barbaric” and “war crimes,” urging Ukrainian allies to enhance their support for the beleaguered nation. The Security Service of Ukraine has opened a criminal investigation into the attack, labeling it a “war crime” and identifying a Russian Kh-101 missile as the weapon used.
German Ambassador to Ukraine Martin Jaeger visited the hospital site and witnessed young cancer and dialysis patients sitting on the sidewalk with their mothers. He described the attack as a war against the civilian population and criticized Russia’s purported readiness for peace negotiations. The German Prime Minister also reaffirmed his country’s steadfast support for the Ukrainian people.
More than 400 people were involved in rescue operations at the Kyiv children’s hospital and other affected sites. Zelenskyy confirmed that four of the 38 fatalities were children, and at least 190 people were being treated for injuries across the country. He emphasized the need to enhance the protection of Ukrainian cities and communities from Russian terror, stating that the world has the necessary strength to achieve this.
The missile strikes have drawn widespread condemnation from Western leaders and governments. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres both condemned the attacks, with Guterres finding the strike on the children’s hospital particularly shocking. Italy’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs also condemned the bombing, calling for the international community to denounce such war crimes.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko declared July 9 a day of mourning, with all flags flown at half-mast and entertainment events canceled. The missile strikes have killed at least 36 people and injured more than 140 across Ukraine. The Ohmatdyt Children’s Hospital, the country’s largest pediatric facility, sustained significant damage, and search and rescue operations are ongoing.
Russia has denied targeting the hospital, claiming it was hit by fragments of a Ukrainian air defense missile. However, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the strike deliberate and vowed to retaliate. The attacks come just days before a NATO summit in Washington, where funding for Ukraine will be a key topic of discussion.
Western political figures have begun condemning the Russian strikes, and the UN Security Council is set to convene to discuss the attacks. NATO is expected to unveil significant new steps to bolster its military partnership with Ukraine.
