The main children's hospital in the capital Kyiv was among buildings hit in cities across the country on Monday.
Russia denied targeting the Kyiv hospital, saying it had been hit by fragments of a Ukrainian air defence missile, while Ukraine said it had found remnants of a Russian cruise missile.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called the attack "brutal" and described his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin as a "bloody criminal".

Several rooms destroyed, but largest Ukraine children hospital. What a nonsense.

By which eyes will the lifeless bodies of the feeble children be seen? Will the tear not well up from the very eyes? Are these eyes not shedding even a drop of tear? Deep condolences from Burma.
