Russia struck a hospital in Kyiv: there are dead and injured

Attack on a medical facility in Kyiv

According to Главком: On the night of January 5, Russian occupiers struck a medical facility in Kyiv, resulting in dead and injured. At the time of the attack, patients were in the intensive care unit. As a result of this strike, three individuals sustained injuries and were hospitalized.

Among the injured:

• two people suffered from smoke inhalation;
• one woman sustained contusions to her left elbow joint.

Confirmed dead is a man born in 1995. Additionally, the consequences of the attack were felt by the residents of Slavutych, which was left without centralized electricity supply. This affected almost 8,500 families.

Pavlo Petrov: 'Shaheeds do not fly at the level of the second floor in the city, there was a direct hit on the medical facility.'

This tragedy raises doubts about the safety of medical institutions in the context of military conflict.

Risks to civilian objects

This incident demonstrates the increasing risk to civilian objects, particularly medical facilities, during military operations. The attack on the hospital raises serious concerns regarding compliance with international humanitarian law norms that protect medical institutions from attacks. The critical situation in Slavutych, where thousands of families were left without electricity, further underscores the scale of the devastating consequences of these attacks for the civilian population.

Such events can have long-term repercussions not only for the medical sector but also for social stability in the region.
