JAKARTA - Czech Foreign Minister Jan Lipavsky summoned the Russian ambassador in Prague following an attack on a children's hospital in the Ukrainian capital. The Czech foreign minister said the perpetrators of the attack were "the scum of humanity".
Ukrainian authorities previously said Russia attacked Kyiv's main children's hospital with cruise missiles and fired missiles at other cities on Monday, killing 41 civilians in several regions.
Russia denied attacking the Kyiv children's hospital and said, without providing evidence, that Ukrainian anti-missile fire was the cause of Monday's attack, July 8.
"I have decided to summon the Russian ambassador," Lipavsky said on the social media platform X, as reported by Reuters on Tuesday, July 9.
"The killer who attacked the children in the hospital is the scum of humanity. He has been instructed to convey this message in Moscow," he said.
