Doctors Without Borders (MSF) condemned what it called Russia's "deliberate strategy to destroy the healthcare system" in Ukraine on Monday, documenting a consistent pattern of attacks throughout the war.
MSF said that between April 2022 and December 2025, it had documented more than 20 attacks on facilities associated with the medical charity.
Russia has launched "relentless attacks on healthcare facilities and medical staff in Ukraine," MSF said in a statement.
These "appear to constitute a deliberate strategy to destroy the healthcare system and collectively punish the population, rather than being an incidental consequence of Russia's invasion," it said.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) recorded 2,815 attacks on healthcare in Ukraine between the February 2022 full-scale invasion and the end of 2025, with the vast majority involving violence with heavy weapons, and 2,319 attacks impacting facilities.
