Russian air strikes have destroyed a maternity hospital in the besieged Ukrainian city of Mariupol, local officials say, prompting widespread condemnation from world leaders towards Russia’s “reckless” actions.
“The Russian occupying forces have dropped several bombs on the children’s hospital. The destruction is colossal,” it said in an online post, adding that it did not yet know any casualty figures. Renewed efforts to evacuate civilians from besieged and bombarded Ukrainian cities were under way on Wednesday as authorities sought to rescue people from increasingly dire conditions.
