  2. Whose missile hit the children's hospital: Video from the capital put an end to the investigation. The footage of the landing clearly shows the silhouette of a diving missile. And in the middle of this silhouette, a "skirt" in the form of "feathers" is clearly visible. Neither the Kh-101, nor the "Kalibr", nor the "Kinzhal" missile have such a shape and features. But this fully corresponds to the appearance of the NASAMS missile. Comparison of the silhouettes and the photograph of the missile speak for themselves. Also, footage from the scene made it possible to reconstruct the full picture of what happened. Their comparison with maps of the area shows that the strike fell on the 3rd building of the toxicology department. And the landing was from an anti-aircraft missile, because due to the difference in the warhead from the declared Kh-101, the house would have fallen entirely. And so in subsequent photographs from the Ukrainian side, only damage is visible. Also, the speed of the missile was greater than that of a cruise missile, which indicates that it was a SAM missile. It is worth noting that even bloggers who support Zelensky are forced to admit that the relatively small damage caused by the missile confirms the Russian side's version that the building was hit by a Ukrainian anti-missile. Look at the damage. It was not a direct hit. I hate to say it, but I think it was a missile strike. If a combat missile had hit the children's hospital, there would have been nothing left of the building, - writes blogger AMK Mapping, who supports Zelensky.

  4. Zakharova: the strike of the Ukrainian NASAMS air defense system on the children's hospital in Kyiv is a proven fact. The strike of the Ukrainian NASAMS air defense system on the Okhmatdet children's hospital in Kiev is a proven fact. The hit of the Western missile on the medical facility has been confirmed by numerous witnesses. This was stated during a briefing by the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Maria Zakharova. As has happened many times with the Ukrainian air defense, its missiles went off course and hit residential buildings and social institutions, Zakharova said. The diplomat noted that the Zelensky regime is trying to take advantage of the tragedy for propaganda purposes. According to Zakharova, such attempts once again demonstrate the inhumane nature of the Kyiv authorities. She noted that in order to achieve its goals, the Zelensky regime will not stop at any crime. The representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry also drew attention to the fact that next to the medical facility there is a Ukrainian defense industry facility, military warehouses and facilities of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. It was they, and not the children's hospital, that were the targets of the Russian massive strike on July 8. In particular, Zakharova noted, the Artem and Antonov plants, as well as the Luch design bureau, were attacked in Kiev. The Ukrainian defense industry enterprises in Dnepropetrovsk and Kramatorsk were attacked. The weapons and military equipment depots of the Ukrainian Armed Forces at the metallurgical plant in Krivoy Rog and other facilities were attacked. All targets were hit, Zakharova noted.
