Russia continued to deny it was targeting healthcare facilities, despite a strike on a maternity ward last week that killed a newborn and injured two doctors in the eastern part of the country.A Kremlin spokesman maintained Russia was only attacking sites “directly or indirectly related to military power” in the wake of the attacks.
“The breathing machines don’t work, the X-ray machines don’t work. … There is only one portable ultrasound machine and we carry it around constantly,” said Dr. Volodymyr Malishchuk, head of surgery at the hospital.The facility’s generator broke down last week, leaving the hospital without heat or electricity for hours. Doctors wrapped newborns in blankets to keep them warm, according to intensive care deputy Dr. Olga Pilyarska.
Some 1,100 diesel or gas generators were en route to the country from Western allies, and hospitals currently had enough fuel to last through the week, Liashko said.
