For more than a year now, the russian army has been targeting and destroying Ukrainian infrastructure, including medical facilities. In particular, every day the enemy destroys hospitals, outpatient clinics, maternity wards, etc.  However, despite the constant bombardment, Ukraine continues to restore and rebuild some medical facilities, to ensure that everyone in need has access to high-quality and necessary medical care despite the challenges caused by the war.

It should be recalled that over the 15 months of war, russia has damaged 1376 medical facilities and destroyed another 184.
