The child in the video is a 2-year-old Mykyta, a victim of russia’s attack on Ohmatdyt Children's Hospital. He is also the kid in the photo taken right after the attack.
Mykyta is suffering with Lyell syndrome (toxic epidermal necrolysis), a severe skin condition, and because of russian terrorism he and nearly 100 other children have been forced to relocate to another hospital for treatment.
Mykyta, an innocent child who has already endured so much, deserved none of this. He and his family were in the hospital when the russian rocket struck. Though injured, they survived, but tragically russia took the lives of 4 other children within seconds that day, injured eight more, and caused immeasurable trauma for hundreds of families.
Russians have taken the lives that had barely begun.
For those who claim that "it wasn’t a direct strike".
The rocket on the video was not hit by air defenses and was flying straight at the target, which is exactly the Ohmatdyt hospital below it.
Today russia hit "Ohmatdyt" children’s hospital with a rocket.
The National Children's Specialized Hospital "Ohmatdyt" is the largest children's hospital in Ukraine, where more than 20,000 children from all over the country are treated every year.
The criminal actions of russia on following points:
The violation of provision of Article 3. 35 of Chapter I, Part III of the Additional Protocol to the Geneva Conventions of August 12, 1949, Concerning the Protection of Victims of International Armed Conflicts Regarding the Prohibition of Methods or Means of Conduct of Military Actions Which Are Intended to Cause or Can Be Expected to Cause Widespread, Long-Term, and Serious Damage natural environment.
Such barbaric actions of the Russian Federation violate the basic principles and ideas that the civilized world developed for decades and enshrined in a number of international agreements, for example, in such as the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance, Mainly as a Habitat for Waterfowl and the Convention on protection of wild flora and fauna and natural habitats in Europe. Such actions of the enemy once again demonstrate to the world community the absolute leveling of the Russian Federation against international norms, standards and rules.
Such criminal actions of the Russian military definitely and completely fall under the criminal law qualification under Art. 8 (2) (b) (iv) of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.
❗️The undermining of the Kakhovska HPP dam is not only one of the biggest ecological and humanitarian disasters in the east of Europe that led to the flooding of vast territories and many settlements, but is in fact the biggest crime against food security in the world.
The Kakhov reservoir was the heart of one of the largest irrigation systems in Europe. It was the southern regions of Ukraine that supplied the countries of the Middle East, Asia, Africa and Europe with wheat, corn, sunflower and sunflower oil, soybeans and soybean meal.
We call on everyone who cares about the fate of our planet and the environment, who declares their status as environmentalists and defines nature protection activities as their goals — to take all possible measures in order to record these violations, bring the culprits to justice, and make it impossible to commit such barbarism in the future.

The world and our planet will face catastrophic consequences if you choose inaction!
Russians filmed a terrible video of brutal beheading of a captured Ukrainian soldier. This is yet another monstrous crime of russian army and a violation of all conventions and moral principles of humanity.
You have to realize that such thing should never happen in 21st century, this is pure terrorism, a literal torture to death, an execution of a helpless human, that screams in agonizing pain for help and begs not to kill him. Everyone should understand this and take measures.

After refusing to submit to Russian brutality and uttering the phrase "Slava Ukraini," a Ukrainian prisoner of war is being brutally killed.
Even in the twenty-first century, horrible war crimes are still committed, and those who break all the rules still go unpunished.
Russian rocket just hit a residential building, 2 entrances demolished, people are screaming under the rubble. This has to stop but it does not. Ukraine still needs more weapons to prevent more deaths.
A little Ukrainian girl gathering debris from the ruined building in Dnipro after today’s russian missile attack. A lot of other people are helping the rescuers. Russia will not win over this nation.
For russians the "russian New Year at the festive table" is the footage of ruined buildings in Ukraine. These are photos from Kyiv after today’s bombardment by russian rockets. This is how they "greet" us.

While @g20org summit is happening in Indonesia, russian terrorists decide to hit residential buildings and critical infrastructure all over the country. Leaving Ukrainian citizens without light and heat sources is a direct act of terror. #RussiaIsATerroristState
