08 July 2024 — Urgent appeal

Russians hit Kyiv’s Okhmatdyt pediatric hospital.
Neonatology, oncology and dialysis departments are damaged.

Okhmatdyt covers an entire city block, about a square kilometer. Russian forces targeted the toxicology department where critically ill children on dialysis were receiving treatment, said Minister of Health Viktor Lyashko. He also noted that surgeries were underway at the time of the attack.

We are very angry and we are in shock

Zeilen is launching a fundraiser to purchase and send aid to the Okhmatdyt children's hospital in Kyiv that was attacked by Russia this morning.


20 pediatric oncology patients have been relocated from Okhmatdyt to the Kyiv Regional Oncology Center. As Okhmatdyt is the main facility for treating such cases, the pediatric ward at the Oncology Center was not fully equipped to handle this influx of patients, particularly given their existing patient load.


The shortage of suitable equipment has forced some children to be connected to adult medical devices. there is now critical need for infusion pumps capable of long-term, precise, and controlled administration of medication.
