Ukrainian officials accused Russia on Wednesday of breaking a mutually agreed-upon ceasefire

Ukraine accused Russia on Wednesday of breaking a mutually agreed-upon ceasefire to prevent the evacuation of civilians in Mariupol while adding that an airstrike by Russian forces destroyed a hospital complex in the same city.

Russian bombs have struck two hospitals, one of them a children’s facility, in Zhytomyr, west of Kyiv, the mayor says. There was no immediate word on casualties. Another airstrike Wednesday devastated a maternity hospital in the port city of Mariupol.

Russian forces bombed a maternity and children’s hospital in southern Ukraine, authorities there said Wednesday, an attack described by the country’s President Volodymyr Zelensky as an “atrocity.”

What people are saying?

Reza Afshar And here we go. Russia employing the same tactics it used in Syria – systematically bombing hospitals and medical facilities. It’s the mark of a shitty military when you have to resort to blatant war crimes to stand any chance of winning.
