At the Lviv Regional Hospital for War Veterans and the Suppressed, which is located in Vynnyky, an emergency situation with oxygen occurred. The mayor of Lviv, Andrey Sadovy, wrote about this on the night of November 20 on Facebook.
“Preliminary, we are talking about an explosion during refueling. Several patients who need artificial oxygen supply need an urgent evacuation to other medical facilities. Among the patients there are serious patients,” said the mayor.
According to him, the ambulance teams have gone to the scene. Lviv ambulance hospital and the eighth hospital are ready to receive patients.

He later clarified that the hospital is temporarily unable to supply oxygen.
“In total, there are 60 oxygen-dependent patients in the hospital. 30 will be received by the emergency hospital, five of them are in intensive care. 12 people are being transferred to the eighth hospital,” wrote the mayor of Lviv.
