Ukraine Hits Donetsk Hospital on Christmas Eve
11:00 GMT 07.01.2024 (Updated: 13:28 GMT 09.01.2024) Kiev's shelling of Russian frontline towns during the holidays comes in the aftermath of cluster munition and MLRS strikes on Russia's Belgorod region that killed 25 people and injured over 100. Moscow branded the attacks “terrorist acts,” warning more strikes on Ukrainian military targets in response.
Three hospital patients were wounded during
Ukraine's shelling of Donetsk city in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) on Orthodox Christmas Eve.
“In Leninsky district, on the territory of hospital No. 6 on Klinicheskaya Street, three patients sustained injuries,” Mayor Alexey Kulemzin wrote on Telegram.
The hospital’s staff organized an evacuation of the patients to a shelter in the basement and provided all necessary care to them. Kulemzin added that the roof and glazing of the hospital building were damaged in the attack, with window frames and doors blown out.
The heating mains, gas pipeline, transformer substation and a vehicle were also damaged.
