The baby’s mother and a doctor were pulled alive from the damage. Multiple explosions were heard in Kyiv Wednesday after sirens sounded in Ukraine’s capital and elsewhere across the country.
Rescuers clear debris of the destroyed two-storey maternity building in the town of Vilnyansk, southern Zaporizhzhia region, on November 23, 2022. An overnight rocket attack destroyed a hospital maternity ward in southern Ukraine, killing a 2-day-old baby, Ukrainian authorities said Wednesday. Ukraine's first lady said the attack caused "horrible pain," vowing that "we will never forget and never forgive.
First lady Olena Zelenska wrote on Twitter that a 2-day-old boy died in the strike and expressed her condolences. "Horrible pain. We will never forget and never forgive," she said. The situation is even worse in the southern city of Kherson, from which Russia retreated nearly two weeks ago after months of occupation — cutting power and water lines.Many doctors in the city are working in the dark, unable to use elevators to transport patients to surgery and operating with headlamps, cell phones and flashlights. In some hospitals, key equipment no longer works.
"You can’t even call animals, because animals take care of their own," said Voblikova wiping tears from her eyes. "But the children ... Why kill children?" The thunderous echoes of what sounded like repeated blasts rattled across the capital. Mayor Vitali Klitschko posted on Telegram that "one of the capital’s infrastructure facilities has been hit." He urged people to "Stay in shelters! The air alert continues."
