A large group of Ukrainian children were returned to Ukraine from the temporarily occupied territories.
This was reported by the Bring Kids Back UA initiative and the head of the President's Office, Andrii Yermak, on Telegram.
"During the years of occupation, they survived oppression, coercion and imposition of russian propaganda, and today they are safe and receive the necessary assistance in Ukraine," the statement said.
According to Yermak, among the rescued are sisters whom the occupation authorities tried to take to a boarding school after the death of their mother, children who were forced to sing the russian anthem and participate in propaganda events with the russian military, as well as a teenager who, despite health problems, was put on military registration.
"Today, they all receive support: they are restoring their documents, undergoing psychological rehabilitation and receiving support to start a new free life," the head of the President's Office said.
