burunduqrussians struck a maternity hospital in Zaporizhzhia. Because Ukrainian newborns are apparently considered legitimate #military targets for russian drones.
Six people were injured. Two of them were women undergoing medical examinations at the time of the strike.
This is not an isolated incident.
Since 2022, russian forces have repeatedly struck or damaged maternity hospitals, neonatal wards, and other healthcare facilities across #Ukraine.
This is a consistent pattern of attacking civilian medical infrastructure. And it started early.
Mariupol, 9 March 2022: a clearly marked maternity hospital was bombed during the siege, killing civilians, including pregnant women and newborns, and becoming one of the first symbols of #russian war crimes.
