Report of the OSCE Moscow Mechanism’s mission of experts entitled ‘Report On Violations Of International Humanitarian And Human Rights Law, War Crimes And Crimes Against Humanity Committed In Ukraine Since 24 February 2022’(англ.). www.osce.org. — «Russia first qualified this incident as a fake news and accused Ukraine of having staged it. Later Russia argued that the building was used by the Azov Batallion and that all patients had been evacuated, inter alia following a warning given by Russia. This warning allegedly consisted of a declaration by the Russian representative in the Security Council on 7 March 2022.
A media report trying to corroborate this military use shows a photograph of a tank and armed persons in front of a building alleged to have been the maternity hospital, but this building does not align with any of the buildings within 1 km of the hospital when compared with satellite imagery. The shape of the building is quite unique and would be detectable from above. Likewise, a video embedded in the article depicting what appears to be a soldier with an anti-tank guided missile on the roof of a building does not match any buildings within 1 km of the hospital. The Permanent Representative of Russia to the UN, however, showed on 11 March pictures of the hospital claiming that it could not have been hit by a rocket: he showed a photo of a crater, "which by all indications was formed as a result of the explosion of a mine planted in the ground".» Дата обращения: 16 мая 2022.
