President Zelenskyy: “One of Kherson’s hospitals that is operating under constant threat, in a shelling zone. I spoke with the doctors and patients of the facility. Every day, they save people injured in Russian drone and artillery attacks.

“To ensure that medical staff can work safely, the intensive care unit is located underground. I thank the doctors and everyone who saves Ukrainian men and women even in such difficult circumstances.

“I also heard a report on the construction of new medical infrastructure facilities in the Kherson region. Eleven facilities already have underground hospitals.

“I thank everyone involved. This is important when lives are being saved even as the enemy tries to take them away.”
