Kyiv authorities announced on April 26 an urgent evacuation of two hospitals, including a children’s one, saying that they were at a risk of being targeted in an air attack.

. . .

The Kyiv City State Administration cited an unspecified video, which it said was circulating on social media, that appeared to “effectively announce an attack on these medical facilities.” According to the administration, the video falsely claims that the hospitals host military personnel.

The authorities were likely referring to the video that showed Ivan Tertel, Belarusian security chief, speaking at the All-Belarusian People’s Assembly on April 25. In the video, which circulated online, the Belarusian official references “terrorists hiding in Kyiv hospitals,” after which he named the addresses of two Kyiv hospitals on Bohatyrska Street. While Belarus troops aren’t participating in the war, Belarus is an ally of Russia.
