Eight medics were killed and ten other people injured when Ukrainian drones struck a medical facility in Russia’s Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), the Defense Ministry in Moscow has said.
The attack reportedly happened on March 10 at around 03:40 Moscow time when four fixed wing UAVs launched by Kiev deliberately targeted a stationary medical institution in the DPR, where more than 130 patients and around 50 medical staff were present.
According to the MOD, nine of the injured are medical workers.
The ministry said that the “terrorist strike by the Kiev regime” had “grossly violated international humanitarian law and basic human morality,” stressing that the facility “has never been used for military purposes” and was a purely civilian medical institution.
