Horrifying moment Ukrainian parents rushed their dying 18-month-old boy into hospital after he was hit by Russian shelling in Mariupol (Photos)
Horrifying images show the parents of 18-month-old Kirill running into a hospital with their dying son and weeping after the toddler was fatally wounded by Russian shelling after Mariupol came under attack by forces yesterday.
Heartbreaking photos also show the the traumatised medical worker sitting on the hospital floor looking shocked and bereft after being unable to save the child’s life.
The scenes, which lay bare the horror of Putin’s lawless invasion of Ukraine, come as heartbreaking images today depicted a mother and her two children lying dead on the pavement after they were killed in Irpin as they tried to flee the city.
Today US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said there are ‘very credible reports’ that Russia had committed war crimes during its invasion of Ukraine – particularly in attacking civilians. It came as a second attempt to evacuate refugees from Mariupol was scuppered again after the city was shelled just minutes into an agreed ceasefire.
