Kremlin Blames Ukraine for Kyiv Children's Hospital Strike

The Kremlin claims Ukrainian anti-missile fire, not Russia, was responsible for striking a children's hospital in Kyiv. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov insisted Russia does not target civilians. Ukrainian authorities, however, accuse Russia of launching the missile, leading to at least 41 civilian deaths in Ukraine's deadliest air strikes in months.

The Kremlin claimed that Ukrainian anti-missile fire, rather than Russia, was responsible for the strike on a children's hospital in Kyiv on Monday.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, although lacking evidence, insisted, 'I insist, we do not conduct strikes on civilian targets.'

Conversely, Ukrainian authorities assert that Russia blasted Kyiv's main children's hospital and bombarded other cities, resulting in at least 41 civilian deaths in the deadliest air strikes in months.
