ANKARA (AA) - A children's hospital in the Ukrainian city of Mariupol has been destroyed by Russian air strikes, local officials announced on Wednesday.

The Mariupol city council said the Russian forces dropped several bombs and shared a photo on Telegram of the site where one of the bombs was dropped.

No casualties have been reported, so far.

The Russia-Ukraine war has drawn international condemnation, led to financial sanctions on Moscow, and spurred an exodus of global firms from Russia, including McDonald's and Starbucks over the last 24 hours.

At least 474 civilians have been killed and 864 others injured in Ukraine since Russia launched a war against its neighbor, according to UN figures, with the real toll feared to be higher.

More than 2.1 million people have fled Ukraine to neighboring countries, according to the UN refugee agency.
