Russia has attacked health facilities at least 130 times during the war, killing around 4,800 people.

Ministers are also donating £300,000 worth of medicines and supplies.

The UK has so far given around £400m in humanitarian aid.

The UK has also provided £200m in military aid which is likely to more than double to £500m, the defense secretary said last night.

Ben Wallace confirmed The Sun’s report that Britain will soon be supplying a “small number” of Stormer missile launchers to Ukraine – and sending Challenger 2 tanks to Poland so Warsaw can pass on more of its own.

He told MPs: “Stormer vehicles will give Ukrainian armed forces improved short-range anti-aircraft capabilities.”

Ministers will ship more old equipment and the Treasury will fund new ones, he said.
