In the summer of 2024, the Russian occupiers deported more than three thousand Ukrainian children from the Kherson region. They were allegedly sent under the pretext of recreation.
Human rights ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets reported this in Telegram.
“I learned from open sources that during the summer of 2024, more than 3,000 children from the temporarily occupied territories of the Kherson region were taken away by the occupation authorities for “re-education”.
Under the guise of recreation, health and cultural and educational programs, 3,310 children were moved to various camps in remote regions of the Russian Federation. Among the so-called events for children are defense and sports meetings in Vologda and “University changes” organized in Tula. Russians involve Ukrainian children in excursions, master classes, sports competitions, as well as in programs that promote violent assimilation and militarization,” the ombudsman informed.
Lubinets added that Russia pursues the goal of creating a generation deprived of its national memory.
We will remind that Ukraine is trying to return its little citizens. At the beginning of January, two minor boys and a 17-year-old boy were returned from the temporarily occupied territories as part of the Bring Kids Back UA initiative.
Prior to that, five more Ukrainian children and their families were returned to the controlled territory of Ukraine. The return took place within the framework of President Volodymyr Zelenskyi’s Bring Kids Back UA initiative.
In total, Ukraine managed to return 1,029 Ukrainian children from Russia.
Earlier we wrote that two families with three children were returned from the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson Region.
