Tuesday was declared a day of mourning in Ukraine after Russia launched missiles on Kyiv and other cities in broad daylight on Monday, killing at least 41 civilians in the deadliest wave of airstrikes in months.

The strike on Okhmatdyt children’s hospital, which interrupted open-heart surgery and forced cancer patients outside, drew international outcry.

The UN says there is a ‘high likelihood’ that the missile was fired directly from Russia.

Ukraine claims to have unequivocal evidence that the children's hospital was hit by a Russian KH-101 missile. The Russian Ministry of Defense denies these accusations.
