General Behind Kyiv Hospital Missile Attack Gunned Down In Russia

A senior Russian general accused of ordering the 2024 missile strike on a children's hospital in Kyiv was shot and wounded on Thursday, according to CNN.

Russia's Investigative Committee said it opened a probe into the attempted murder of a serviceman shot several times in Engels, in the Saratov region.

Ukraine's Security Service and Prosecutor General charged him with war crimes three days ago, alleging he ordered a Kh-101 cruise missile launch on Kyiv's Okhmatdyt hospital in July 2024. That strike killed three people, injured dozens, and wrecked intensive care, oncology and surgical wings.
