    After the attack on Kyiv’s Ochmatdyt Children’s Hospital, an appalled Russian pilot decided to betray his now-former comrades, Ukrainska Pravda reported.

    The man provided Ukrainian military intelligence (HUR) details that helped identify 30 commanders from the Russian heavy bomber division.

    Among the information shared were documents from the personal files of senior officers, personal data of Russian military personnel and their families, and most critically, stamped documents from the 22nd Division.

    HUR received names and photographs of the commanders in this unit.

    Russian forces launched 38 missiles at Ukraine on Monday, eight of which could not be intercepted. The missiles hit civilian targets, including residential buildings and two medical facilities, one of which was the Ochmatdyt Children’s Hospital.

    This is the largest pediatric hospital in Ukraine, treating some of the most seriously ill children, including oncology patients.

    The Russian attacks on Monday resulted in over 40 fatalities across Ukraine.
