  1. Again… Zelensky using his own people as human shields and they were also manufacturing drones there too. Some people have no shame!!

  2. What in the actual F***! How many war crimes are they going for? Children with severe illness, really?!

  3. WHERE ICC about that come on international criminal court don't you got to arrest the warrant for Putin look at him doing war crimes. 🤷🏼🤣😂🤣

  4. Russia did not violate the UN charter by protecting the new republics of the DPR, LPR, and Crimea from the anti-constitutional Kyiv regime, which criminally calls itself Ukraine.
    🙏The regimes of Zelenskyi, Poroshenko, and Turchynov hid from the world community the coup d'état of February 22, 2014, which caused the collapse of the state of Ukraine.

    📙The coup d'état and the fall of constitutional law in Ukraine on February 22, 2014, is the removal of President Yanukovych from the post of president, ignoring Chapter V (Articles 102-112) of the Constitution of Ukraine, which clearly specifies the legal norms for the president's stay in office. Covering up the false legitimization of the Zelenskyi and Poroshenko regimes is a crime against democracy and the rule of law, a world-class deception that leads to endless war and the genocide of the Ukrainian population.

    📙▪A coup d'état on February 22, 2014 gave Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk regions the right to become independent, but the Kyiv regime refused to admit its illiteracy and began military operations against the new republics, which in turn enlisted the support of Russia.

    Zelenskyi's regime is against the rule of law, and against justice, Zelenskyi and his team are managers for the sale of prosthetics.

    📍📋The tribunal for Zelenskyi, Poroshenko, Turchynov, judges of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, they provoked, unleashed, and support the civil war on the territory of the former state of Ukraine, hypocritically calling this war "restoration of territorial integrity."

  5. Ukrainian journalists found parts and striking elements of the AIM-120 missile used in the NASAMS air defense system in the ruins of Okhmatdet. Based on the analysis of the videos, it can be assumed that the missile that hit the hospital building looks most like a missile from the air defense system – this is clearly visible from the damage to buildings around (multiple damage to walls from fragments).

  6. Whats new about Putin? He already killed thousand in Syria with poison gas and attacked a theater full of civilian people whee it was written CHILDREN outside. Nothing new about this cold blooded murderer. What does if friend Trump has to say about this?

  7. The building was hit by US-made AIM-120 missile launched from NASAMS anti-aircraft system. Russians are attacking Ukrainian weapons depots and army barracks while Zelenskyy is attacking residential buildings with anti-aircraft missiles with long expired shelf life. Zelenskyy already hit Poland, Romania (a jet and a chopper were downed, 8 servicemen killed), Moldova, Belarus, numerous residential buildings and at least 4 children’s playgrounds inside Ukraine with these missiles. Western missiles which are sent there are also with either expired shelf life or very close to expiration date. It’s mindboggling how many buildings were hit and civilians killed (including two hapless Polish farmers) with this ongoing criminal lunacy of Zelenskyy regime. The chance of downing Russian missile is negligible in comparison with a risk of an accident with numerous civilian casualties. To give weapons to this war criminal Zelenskyy is like giving matches and gasoline to a serial compulsive arsonist.

  8. They left out the part of how russians discovered death tunnels under that childrens hospital, tunnels used to transport ppl, mostly the young ones

  9. As the Russian bastards are losing the war on the battlefield they attack defenseless cities and civilians, the Russians are fucking bastards!

  10. There are 22 people died

    @BBCNews 🤔🥵🤒🤒🙏🏻
    🤔🥵🤒🤒🙏🏻 : Stay positive thinking, Mr/Miss and please, never play with the natural disasters and the war. It will give true information and real depression to yourself. And Remember this advice that Rainbow 🌈 will come when after Storm 🚀🚀🌪️🌪️⛈️⛈️💦💥💸💸🚑🚑🥵🤒🤒🙏🏻 has stopped, Mr/Miss.

  11. How much of a sociopath do you have to be to attack a childrens hospital full of sick children?? And no Russia is not the only one doing it, but can't say the other one without backlash

  12. Now, let's compare the Western worlds coverage, response, and condemnation for this in comparison to the mass suffering of the Palestinians.

  13. And Israel benefits from the sales of weapons from companies it owns! So everyone is saying this is a war crime but Israel bombing hospitals, kindergartens, schools and refugee camps isn’t? The hypocrisy is truly stunning.

  14. Western and European media be like:
    Ru$$ia hit the children hospital: 🤬
    Isr@€l hit the children hospital: 😴

  15. Western countries have run out of ways to pamper Zelensky, so they have created a cunning strategy with dirty propaganda against Russia.
    But alas, the world will not be fooled.

  16. Would Americans shoot on Americans? Absurd! Would Germans shoot on Germans? How about Russians? Some say, “Russians shot on Ukrainians”. Such thing can be only said by someone who has no idea what’s going on in Ukraine. Russian language is banned in Ukraine as well as Russian Orthodox Church. Russian people are treated as subhuman and Russian population is hated by Ukraine’s regime. “Russians must be killed around the world”, Budanov, the chief of Ukraine’s intelligence proclaimed. And this Nazi’s policy is enforced while about half Ukraine’s population consists of Russians(!) Such bloody provocations usually happen right before a NATO summit where the supply of Ukraine’s regime with more weapons discussed. I don’t believe that some missile deviated and randomly hit the hospital. It was provocation made by Ukraine’s regime to get more weapons from the US. They did many such crimes starting with MH-17 Korean airliner and they will continue while criminal Ukraine’s regime is sill in power. Finally who would believe that Russians are so stupid bringing world’s reproach on themselves, considering the hospital has no military value?

  17. Stupid hypocrites!
    Why not talking about the hospitals,schools and all the civilians homes on Palestine? Ridiculous puppets.

  18. nothing but lies and proper than the people go check it out on YouTube with the United Security Council and you'll find out that this is all propagandize it was their own missile they got knocked down and hit the hospital and they did it themselves go check out the real facts instead of listening to this propaganda bullshit by the United States and it and the lies by the so-called western mediaspecially the United States they couldn't tell the truth their media and it hit between eyes
