Four more children from Kherson region have been successfully returned to the territory controlled by Ukraine - a 14-year-old girl with a disability, a 12-year-old boy, and two 15-year-old teenagers.
This was announced on Telegram by the head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration, Oleksandr Prokudin.
"This includes a 14-year-old girl with a disability, a 12-year-old boy, and two 15-year-old boys. They were forced to attend a Russian school, their parents were pressured to obtain passports of the aggressor country. The teenage boys were registered with the military to be eventually conscripted into the occupying army. This became a significant reason for their families to break free from the occupation and return to their homeland."
The return of Ukrainian people to the territory controlled by Ukraine was facilitated by the Commissioner for Human Rights of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine.
Since the beginning of 2024, 52 children have been successfully returned from the occupied territory of Kherson region.
Currently, the families are in a safe place. They are being supported by medical professionals and psychologists.
"Thanks to everyone who continues to do everything possible to bring every Ukrainian child back home."
