#midwifemastodon hoping to reconnect with my tribe over here and 😀

This is a devastating photo of the family grieving at the coffin of a 2-day-old baby, who was murdered in a Russian missile strike on a hospital In Vil'nyans'k, Zaporizhzhia Oblast. On the night of 23rd November Russians fired at the hospital, destroying the maternity ward. In addition to the dead baby, two doctors were injured and the mother had to rescued from the rubble.

There are no words. I cannot imagine the parents' pain.
