Russia’s Defence Ministry claims Ukraine has executed a strike against a hospital in Novoaidar, the Luhansk region, reads the agency’s statement.
“The impact of the rockets with high-explosive fragmentation warheads has resulted in killing 14 and injuring 24 patients and medical employees of the hospital,” the statement says. “The healthcare facility of Novoaydar was the venue where civilian and military professionals had been providing medical aid to the local population and servicemen for many months.” The Ministry also claims that a HIMARS rocket system was used to deliver the strike.
