The hospitals situation in Ukraine is deterioration due to the ongoing conflict. The conflict in Ukraine is causing large-scale displacement within the country and refugees are being displaced across the borders. The most immediate threat to the people living in the country is the collapse of health services. There are severe restrictions on medical services and clinics can be destroyed, leaving hospitals without the supplies they need to operate. In this way, the victims of the crisis are unable to receive the necessary treatment.

The World Health Organization reports that at least 18 hospitals have been attacked during the conflict. In Mariupol, a strategically important city on the Sea of Azov, workers suspect a trench 25 meters long to evacuate victims. They made the sign of the cross and shoved the bodies over the edge. Earlier, a hospital in Donetsk region reported that 17 people were injured. The Russian military has repeatedly violated the ceasefire agreement.

The hospital in Mariupol is in ruins. Video footage posted on the Ukrainian foreign ministry shows that the hospital is destroyed, and that it has no power or running water. The UN Human Rights body is verifying the casualty numbers at the hospital. The organization is concerned about the indiscriminate use of weapons in populated areas and the danger to civilians caught in the conflict. The governor of the Donetsk region said 17 people were injured. The United States has accused Russia of violating the ceasefire. However, Ukrainian officials say the attacks are not a crime and have a humanitarian impact.

The situation in Ukraine has continued to worsen in recent days. As of last week, Russian military forces had stopped firing on trapped civilians, but hundreds of thousands of people have been living in shelters with no power and water. The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, has called the attack "beyond atrocity". A few days later, a Russian airstrike hit a hospital in Mariupol, destroying a maternity ward and two other buildings.

On the same day, the latest round of peace talks between Ukraine and Russia has not led to a deal between the two countries. Although the Russian army has promised to stop the attacks on civilians, hundreds of thousands have been living in shelters without power or water for more than a week. The Ukrainian president has also called on the international community to impose tight sanctions on the country. At the time of the talks, no deal has been reached.

The situation in the hospitals in Ukraine has become more serious since Russia's military has begun bombarding the country. The war in Ukraine is entering its third week today. Both sides have sought to thwart the conflict by strengthening diplomatic ties. While the Russian President has promised to stop the fighting in the eastern part of the country, it is still a major obstacle for the peace talks in other regions of the country. In addition, the war in Ukraine has killed more people and displaced thousands of others.

In addition to the deaths of patients, the damage caused by the conflict has been devastating. Many civilians have died and hundreds more have been displaced. It has been a year since peace talks in Ukraine were initiated. The president of Ukraine has urged the international community to impose sanctions on Russia over the bombings. While the Russians and Ukrainians are trying to reach a deal, the Ukrainian government has not. The Russians and the Ukrainian governments both have negotiated with the government.

The hospitals' situation in Ukraine has been catastrophic for many people. The Russians have been bombing the country's capital, including hospitals, causing widespread destruction. A few days ago, Ukraine's foreign minister spoke in Russian, saying the Russians had attacked the Ukrainian population. The war in Ukraine has affected millions of civilians. It is the third-largest humanitarian crisis in the world. It is causing thousands of lives.

The situation is even worse in Ukraine's capital, Kiev. Residents who live in the area have no access to electricity, water, or food. They are displaced to Romania to find a safe refuge. The situation is so dire that the international community is calling for a global response. The President of Ukraine has also called on the Western world to tighten sanctions against Russia. Despite the ongoing conflict, the Russian military is preventing the evacuation of the people.

Finding the nearest hospital in case of an emergency and injuries caused by the situation is so important. Although the situation of hospitals is not so good but injured can be given first aid to decrease further complications. WHO should make sure the facilities and medicines should be provided on an urgent basis.
