Russia struck Kyiv children’s hospital with Kh-101 missile, OSINT analysis indicates
Russian propagandists claim the missile that devastated Kyiv's Central Children's Hospital was of western origin. But all evidence points to the Kh-101
On 8 July, a Russian missile attack hit cities across Ukraine, killing at least 38 people and injuring 190. Four children were among the killed.
In Kyiv, the missile strike hit the National Specialized Children’s Hospital Okhmatdyt, Ukraine’s largest children’s medical center. The toxicology building was struck, killing at least two people including a doctor, and the dialysis facility was destroyed, injuring many as well.
The barbaric act of targeting sick children, including those undergoing treatments including cancer therapy and open heart surgery, prompted widespread public outrage. Russian propagandists tried to shift the narrative by claiming that it was not a Russian missile but rather a Ukrainian air defense system, particularly a Western-supplied one, responsible for the attack.
