Thousands of children deported from Mariupol were declared in the Russian Federation. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine demands to return them to parents

More than a thousand Ukrainian children, whom the Russians were illegally deported from temporarily captured Mariupol, were given "adoption" in the Krasnodar region. This is evidenced by data on the website of the Department of Family and Childhood of the Krasnodar Territory. It is indicated that children will live in Tyumen, Irkutsk, Kemerovo and the Altai region. More than 300 children from Ukraine are now in the queue for "adoption" and are in "specialized institutions" of the Krasnodar region.

Video Day spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Oleg Nikolenko called on the Russian Federation to return all stolen children to their parents or legal guardians. “Russia reports that a thousand Ukrainian children were illegally transported from the occupied Mariupol to Siberia. It is a gross violation of the IV Geneva Convention and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, ”his Twitter reads.

On July 29, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine stated that more than 5,600 children were deported to Russia, but the number is actually higher. On July 13, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the occupiers had already been deported 2 million inhabitants of temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, including several hundred thousand children.
