Kyiv (8/07 – 62.5)
Ohmatdyt Children’s Hospital in Kyiv was hit in renewed strikes by Russian terror attacks with rockets against Ukrainian targets. Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said at least 41 civilians dead, seven of them children, and many others were injured.
Search parties combed the debris and continued to look for the killed and injured. Volunteers are searching for the destroyed children hospital on the ground. Nurses and doctors are working to save and evacuate patients and visitors. Cries of young patients are heard rising from the debris with emergency services not reaching them.
Russia attacked the main children’s hospital in Kyiv with a missile in broad daylight on Monday and rained missiles down on other cities across Ukraine in the deadliest wave of air strikes for months.
The Russian terror attack comes after NATO conference gave a clear NO to Ukrainian membership is politically concern about an escalation of the war with the occupying forces from the Russian Federation.
How many children, the innocent and those under treatment must die before the political elite in Europe and NATO leave the lawyers in the Pentagon, Brussels, London and Berlin and get on with beating the occupying Russian army?
Despite promises of aid, the war of the Russian occupation rages on unhindered.
The occupiers made it clear with Viktor Orbán that nothing will be excepted until a total defeat of the Ukrainian population. The Russians have vowed to and will wipe out the Ukrainian race. Regardless of political motivation, creed or race.
Emergency services are still picking up stone by stone to get to the victims from the constant Russian hits on Ukraine targets. An often-repeated scene in this war. If this is what denazification looks like, that Putin and his ilk will have to look to aim on only children at this hospital target.
The pictures of killed and injured children will hit hard but that is the reality of Putin’s occupation in Ukraine. The Russian occupation is like the bombing of Dresden, Berlin and Kosovo. Until, the American airpower intervened.
We know the Russian occupiers are afraid of a NATO engagement. Hence the message to Ukraine is clear. Continue to bomb, kill and maim and you do not face the consequences.
But help is coming slowly.
As the world watches, the Americans are currently embroiled in domestic squabbles. Trump is a naivest and unsuited for the offices. But reality is, he is an example of the new US elites emerging.
The latest bombing of civilian targets in Ukraine raises the question of “just war”, restricting the Ukraine to defend itself, with all its might and methods. The just war theory postulates the belief that war, while it is terrible but less so with the right conduct, is not always the worst option. Important responsibilities, undesirable outcomes, or preventable atrocities may justify war.
The occupiers will lose!
If the Russians must bomb civilian targets, we can safely assume the Russians are losing the battle of the will on the battlefield. If Russians target the civilians, the prime objective of the occupation is missed.
It will be interesting to see what the sycophants come up on the propaganda front. Claims are irrelevant and it does not justify bombing of hospitals and maternity wards. But it is clear that the Russians will lose more men than earlier estimated.
And the Russians will lose in the end.
