Russia hit the largest children's hospital in Kyiv with a missile. After the attacks of Putin's army, over 37 were killed and over 170 were injured. In the hospital "Ohmatdet" operating theatres, resuscitation and eight wards were destroyed. All of them specialize in the treatment of children with cancer. Some of the children during the infernal shelling are on operating tables with their chests open and under anesthesia. There are dead and injured doctors.
Thousands of Kyivites rush to help the children and staff, clear the debris with their bare hands and pull out corpses and mutilated people from under collapsed walls, ceilings, beds, medical equipment… Screams echoed throughout the area. Medics are trying to provide emergency aid on the spot, firefighters are extinguishing the eerie flames.
Ukraine is shocked by the treacherous attack. The world is shaken.
Many Bulgarians also do not understand how it is possible to commit such an atrocity against innocent children and civilians, against a hospital, in broad daylight.
The UN and the Security Council convened an emergency meeting on the occasion of the treacherous missile attack.
I am returning to Bulgaria. Instantly, the media and social networks were filled with ironic and cynical comments that “Ukraine” they themselves blew up the children's hospital and killed their children. The comments of the Kremlin spoken by Putin's spokesman are quoted with great relish and impudence – Dmitry Peskov: We attack only military objects. Since the beginning of the special military operation, our target has been military sites, not civilians. In this particular case, it is about anti-missile“.
This stupid and abnormal thesis was taken up by the Bulgarian supporters of the Putin regime.
I understand these jerks – I expect nothing else from people without brain activity, morals and humanity. But only a few days ago, the same ones were ecstatic about the election of Daniil as the new Bulgarian patriarch, showering him with praise for his meekness and faith in Christian values. Among its most extreme defenders, Neshka Robeva, Velislava Dureva, and titled theologians with communist biographies stood out, known for their loud defensive theses of Russian propaganda.
No one is surprised anymore by the paradox that defenders of orthodox communism and the dictatorship of the proletariat, denying the church, defend the Russophile in the BOC as a bridge to the fraternal ROC, headed by KGB colonel Gundyaev, currently posing as Russian Patriarch Kirill. The proud heirs of a party that committed the most sinister act of terrorism in the 20th century – the attack in the church of “St. Sunday“ they are inundating us with messages from the Bible, trying to tailor them to the sinister war criminal Putin.
After the rocket attack on the children's hospital in Kiev, the Bulgarian Foreign Ministry published a small and rather shy text in English on the X-net. Not a single order was sent to the media, and no spokesperson or anyone else from the department appeared with an official position on the barbaric attack.
Even stranger – complete silence in the Holy Synod and not a word from Patriarch Daniel, who should declare his and our church's position in harmony with Christian values.
There is no reaction from the Chief Mufti and the Supreme Muslim Council either.
The silence in “Revival” is eerie. and the BSP, from where they constantly bombard us with declarative clichés about how much they value peace. Is the demolition of a children's hospital an act of peace by Putin, according to Kostadinov and Ninova?
And what is the peace-loving president Rumen Radev so busy with that he didn't find five minutes to express his much-publicized idea of peace? Or does he also consider the direct hit of the X-101 cruise missile on sick children and a maternity hospital as a dove with an olive branch in its beak?
On Tuesday morning, analysts and commentators were trying to find an answer, why exactly a day before the summit of the NATO countries in the USA, this barbaric attack against Ukraine is happening? Won't it damage Putin's claims that he is seeking a peaceful solution to the war against the Ukrainians?
The answer is in the message of the Russian Ministry of Defense: “The objectives of the military strikes have been achieved and the targeted objects – overwhelmed”. Short and clear. Brutal and barbaric.
The strategic cruise missiles “air-to-ground“ X-101 hit targets at a distance of up to 5500 km. The deviation probability is 20 meters. They were developed by the “Raduga“ design team. It is designed to fly at a low distance from the ground. It has been in serial production since 2013. The Ukrainian army did not own and does not own such missiles.
Do you understand that the missile was sent deliberately towards the hospital, with the clear knowledge that it would kill children and medics. Another rocket is aimed and hits a maternity hospital.
Dozens of videos and photos from different distances, points of view, including from satellites, conclusively prove that the missile was launched by a Russian part on Russian territory.
On April 8, 2022, I announced in Frog News that I was ready to pay for a trip to Alexander Simov, then a BSP MP, to the Ukrainian cities of Bucha and Mariupol. The idea arose after I heard how Simov “proves“ from the screen of public television, that the bloody carnage in these settlements, arranged by the Russian military, is a theatrical production of the Ukrainians themselves. He even mocked that the ceremony of awarding the film Oscars passed without the participation of the “Ukrainian farce”. I'm retired and I don't have any extra money, but I was ready to pay because the truth is more expensive to me than my pension.
Cowardly Simov, of course, took his time. And what else to do after Putin himself admitted about the Russian "feats" there as the 64th motorized rifle brigade, which participated in the massacres. Two officers and several soldiers later deserted from this unit and admitted that commanders had ordered the massacre of the population. One senior lieutenant even committed suicide...
I am now renewing my offer to fund a trip to Kiev for Robeva or another avowed Putinophile to see first-hand the devastation at the children's hospital. Let him then tell what happened and even present the evidence of the “landing bomb” of Ukrainians, if any. I will pay in addition to plane tickets - per diem and hotel.
That's what the Bulgarian Putinophiles are: they run in front of the Kremlin like the four horsemen of the apocalypse from the Revelation of John in the New Testament and spew Russian threats about the nuclear end of the world, but otherwise they are poor mice longing for the master's just whip or a belly scratch.
I ask these trembling hearts, experiencing themselves as dark demons of Russian propaganda, sowing corruption in our country:
What is the difference between Putin's X-101 missile at a children's hospital and Ahmed Agha Barutanliata's scimitar unleashed in Batak?
Perhaps we, the Bulgarians, also killed the women, children and old men in the Batash church of St. Sunday“, we raped and then slaughtered the women and roasted the mayor alive to dunk the bashibozouk in front of the world?
It's about time some people woke up, racked their brains or shut up.
And let them not push the cliché about Russian culture, art and science that made Russia great.
Dictatorship and treachery have nothing to do with Russian artists and scientists, most of whom, for the record, lived, created and achieved heights abroad, because in their homeland – Russia and the USSR - were persecuted and massacred.
