Russia calls horrifying bombing of children's hospital that sparked fury 'fake news'
10.03.2022 - 16:27 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Russia has branded the Ukrainian claims that it carried out the horrifying bombing of a children's hospital in Mariupol as "fake news", stating that the building was no longer a maternity hospital and that it had long been taken over by armed forces.
Taking to Twitter Dmitry Polyanskiy, Russia's first deputy permanent representative to the United Nations, said: "That's how fake news is born."
Polyanskiy said that Russia had warned on March 7 that the hospital had been turned into a military object from which Ukrainians were firing shots, The Mirror writes.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy accused Russia of carrying out genocide after Ukrainian officials said that Russian aircraft bombed the children's hospital on March 9.
Pregnant women and small children may still be trapped under the wreckage after the Russian bombing with rescuers carrying out frantic searches throughout the night.
Ukraine officials have said that at least 17 people have been injured by the shelling that saw heavily pregnant women among the people brought out of the destroyed hospital on stretchers.
UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson condemned the attack as “depraved”.
He said: “There are few things more depraved than targeting the vulnerable and defenceless.”
The White House also said the hospital bombing was a "barbaric use of military force to go after innocent civilians".
Russian officials had earlier pledged to halt firing so at least some trapped civilians could escape the port city, where hundreds of thousands have been sheltering without water or power for more than a week.
Both sides blamed the other for the failure of the evacuation.
"What kind of country is this, the Russian Federation, which is afraid of hospitals, is afraid of maternity
