Russia launched dozens of missiles at cities across Ukraine on July 8, killing at least 24 people and devastating a children's hospital in Kyiv. Okhmatdyt is the largest children's hospital in Ukraine, where more than 20,000 children from all over Ukraine get treatment every year.
Ukrainian children are not alone. We want to give them hope. People are united towards providing urgent help in Kyiv. Ukraine Appeal Charity joins the common campaign.
The report will be posted in our Facebook Group.

The missile completely destroyed the toxicology building and damaged 4 more. 10 surgical departments, 5 oncology departments, 2 somatic departments, 2 intensive care units, operating units, radiology and radiation therapy departments, and part of the oncology and haematology laboratory (the only one in the country) were affected. Currently, the children have been evacuated to other hospitals in the capital.
Each pound matters! Thank you for any support. We believe kindness and humanity will win.
