Mariupol Maternity Hospital was camp of radical fighters: Russian Foreign Minister

Antalya: Allegations of a Russian attack on a maternity hospital in the Ukrainian port city of Mariupol are false, says Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

Russia had already informed the United Nations on Monday that medical staff were no longer present at the former hospital, but that a camp had been set up there by ultra-radical fighters of the Ukrainian battalion Azov, Lavrov said in Antalya after talks with his Ukrainian counterpart, Dmytro Kuleba.

He spoke of 'manipulation' of the entire world with information on alleged atrocities by the Russian army.
