Summary
Ukraine has published what it says is "unequivocal" evidence a Russian missile hit Kyiv's largest children's hospital. <br /> <br />The Okhmatdyt hospital treats 20,000 people a year. A two-storey wing helping children with cancer was destroyed in the attack. <br /> <br />It's the deadliest airstrike in Ukraine for months - on the eve of a NATO summit and as China and Belarus start military exercises near the Polish border - what reaction can we expect? <br /> <br />Niall Paterson is joined by Jimmy Rushton, a Kyiv-based journalist and defence analyst, to hear more about the damage and the reaction from those in Ukraine's capital. Plus, he speaks to our defence and security editor Deborah Haynes. <br /><br />For further background from Sky News, you can read more of Deborah’s <a href="https://news.sky.com/story/ukraine-russia-war-latest-updates-putin-kyiv-hypersonic-sky-news-blog-12541713?postid=7941677#liveblog-body" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">analysis here</a>, and our Moscow correspondent Ivor Bennet’s on Putin’s power play <a href="https://news.sky.com/story/sudden-escalation-in-attacks-no-coincidence-as-putin-aims-power-plays-at-nato-before-key-talks-13175318" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">here</a>. <br /> <br />Producer: Rosie Gillott <br />Editor: Paul Stanworth <br />Promotions producer: Jada Kai Meosa-John
