July 8, 2024 7

The UN humanitarian coordinator for Ukraine harshly condemned Monday’s wave of deadly Russian strikes across Ukraine, including on Kyiv, saying “dozens of people have been killed and injured”.

“It is unconscionable that children are killed and injured in this war,” she said in a statement, referring to a strike on a children’s hospital in Kyiv, which Ukrainian officials said was hit by a Russian cruise missile.
