We shall remind you that at 2:25 a.m. on 23 November, rescuers of Zaporizhzhya Region received a report of two rockets hitting the Volnyansk central district hospital. The strike destroyed part of the maternity ward, damaged the outpatient clinic, the surgery unit, the intensive care unit and the laboratory. Rescuers arrived at the scene unlocked a doctor from under the rubble, used a vehicle ladder to remove a woman in labour from the first floor and found a body of a 2-day old newborn baby.

Oleg Ivashchenko, head physician of the Volnyansk multi-profile hospital, said that the hospital served the Volnyanschina and Zaporizhzhya district. Last year 167 babies were born there, this year - 145. But after the night attack on November 23, they will no longer deliver babies here. Women will be sent to Zaporizhzhya. Equipment worth 2 million hryvnias, which was bought recently, was left under the rubble
