A Russian hypersonic missile struck the complex on Monday morning, hitting a two-storey toxicology department where children undergo dialysis, officials said.
The building’s roof collapsed, killing at least two hospital workers.
One victim is understood to have been a doctor. At least 16 people were wounded, including seven children, officials said.
“I am feeling so down,” Oleksandra said, pointing at the hospital, which was still surrounded by a cloud of dust as bulldozers removed the debris.
“They saved my son there two years ago, and now I see this,” she said as dozens of volunteers rushed around, handing out bottled water, food and fruit to the children from pick-up trucks and buses.
“They are children, just little ones. We see them every day.
Some have cancer,” she said.

If you rightly condemn Russia for their depravity as they bomb hospitals and kill children, but continue to sell arms to Israel, who have killed over 14,000 children (and counting) and destroyed Gaza's hospitals with impunity, then you are a hypocrite. Simple.
If you condemn Israel as they bomb hospitals and kill children but do not condemn Al Qassam for using these hospitals as military bases; deliberately using civilian infrastructure in an attempt to render them immune from military action; and/or deliberately attempting to cause as much civilian harm as possible, then you are a hypocrite. Simple.

Nice try! However, this ones on Ukraine. Their missile defense system failed. Once again. Misfired and hit the hospital.
Dont worry. They have the video. But keep trying. Good effort.
Consider diplomacy. It might help. Now.

You sure?
Wasn’t a misfired Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket?
You don’t want to wait till Russia has a chance to investigate itself?
