Ukraine hospitals could run out of oxygen supplies in 24 hours as war disrupts health services, WHO says

Ukrainian hospitals could run out of oxygen supplies in the next 24 hours as Russia's invasion disrupts transportation across the country, putting thousands of more lives at risk, according to the World Health Organization.

The WHO, in a statement Sunday, said trucks are unable to transport oxygen supplies from plants to hospitals around the country, including the capital, Kyiv, which faced a barrage of Russian missile attacks overnight.
