Stop attacks on health care in Ukraine - Joint statement from UNICEF, UNFPA, and WHO

Stop attacks on health care in Ukraine - Joint statement from UNICEF, UNFPA, and WHO

“Today, we call for an immediate cessation of all attacks on health care in Ukraine. These horrific attacks are killing and causing serious injuries to patients and health workers, destroying vital health infrastructure and forcing thousands to forgo accessing health services despite catastrophic needs.

"To attack the most vulnerable – babies, children, pregnant women, and those already suffering from illness and disease, and health workers risking their own lives to save lives – is an act of unconscionable cruelty. (Genf/New York, 13.03.2022)
