Russia to be grilled on fate of forcibly deported Ukrainian children at UN Committee

The UN Committee seeks to determine how many children have been deported to Russia or within Russian-occupied territories, as well as what Russia has done to protect “the right of such children to preserve their identity, including nationality, name and family relations."

Since last February, nearly 20,000 Ukrainian children have been identified as #abducted from Russian-occupied territories and sent to other Russian-controlled areas of Ukraine, or to Russia itself

Russia deports 17 children with disabilities from occupied Donetsk Oblast

Russia #deported 17 Ukrainian children with #disabilities from the occupied part of Donetsk Oblast to a rehabilitation center near Moscow as part of the forced #passportization campaign in the occupied territories of Ukraine, Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets said on Jan. 22.

Ukrainian authorities have identified over 19,000 Ukrainian children who have been illegally deported to Russia since the beginning of the full-scale invasion in February 2022. Some of them were deported under the guise of sending them for rehabilitation and then put into the custody of Russian families.
