The russian occupying troops fired at the district hospital in Balaklia (Kharkiv region), the head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, Oleg Synegubov, reported on social media.
“Patients and staff need immediate evacuation: about 70 patients and medical staff. We are doing everything to organize it and save people,” said Synegubov.
He reminded that Balakliia is a temporarily occupied territory; its Mayor went to cooperate with the occupiers.
“Russia’s shelling of the civilian population is another attempt of the occupiers to accuse the Ukrainian Armed Forces of attacking civilians, another cynical lie of russian propaganda and military provocation,” said the Head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration.
As reported earlier, on April 2, on-air during a TV marathon, Synegubov reported that Izium remains the hottest point in the region, around which fighting continues.
In Dergachiv district of Kharkiv region, the occupiers damaged a gas pipe.
