Tuesday, July 9, 2024, 5:13 p.m., United Kingdom

Ukraine has published what it believes is “clear” evidence that a Russian missile hit the largest children’s hospital in Kyiv.

Okhmatdyt Hospital treats 20,000 people annually. A two-story wing serving children with cancer was destroyed in the attack.

It was the deadliest ceasefire in Ukraine in months – on the eve of a NATO summit and at a time when China and Belarus are beginning military exercises near the Polish border. What reaction can we expect?

Niall Paterson is joined by Jimmy Rushton, a Kyiv-based journalist and defence analyst, to find out more about the damage and how people are responding in the Ukrainian capital, and speaks to our defence and security editor Deborah Haynes.
