A bombing of a pediatric hospital in Kherson has injured nine people, including four children. Ukraine accuses Russia of committing a war crime.

On Wednesday, the city of Kherson was the target of a bombing that hit a pediatric hospital, resulting in the injury of nine people, four of whom are children. Ukrainian authorities, represented by mediator Dmytro Lubinets, accuse Russia of a new war crime, emphasizing that attacks on civilian property constitute a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law. The hospital buildings suffered significant damage, and Lubinets posted a video recording illustrating the destruction.

Kherson, liberated by Ukrainian forces in November 2022, is subjected to Russian bombings almost daily, with frequent civilian casualties. Meanwhile, in the Odesa region, Russian attacks have damaged electrical infrastructure, affecting nearly 26,900 households. Ukraine responds with drone strikes on Russian territory, and in Belgorod, a Ukrainian attack resulted in one person's death and three others injured.
