Ukrainian external intelligence has pinpointed the precise locations where Russia is unlawfully detaining seized Ukrainian children. The initial registry of more than 300 names and locations will be disseminated to worldwide collaborators in the near term.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy communicated this in his evening statement on October 31. Based on his remarks, intelligence has fulfilled a vital assignment – it has ascertained the definite addresses of Ukrainian children who were forcibly transferred to the Russian Federation.
“We are furnishing partners with inventories of children who require repatriation. This will frustrate any endeavors by Russia to feign ignorance of their whereabouts. We are striving to guarantee that these inventories encompass not just names, but also exact addresses,” the president emphasized.
Zelensky remarked that the matter of child restitution is “highly delicate” and necessitates “discreet but consistent diplomatic endeavors.”
“The initial such listing – exceeding 300 children along with precise locations – will be accessible to all leaders who back Ukraine,” the head of state incorporated.
According to reports, 2,243 children are regarded as missing within Ukraine. During the past year, almost 600 young Ukrainians taken by Russia were brought back to Ukraine through the assistance of the International Coalition for the Return of Ukrainian Children.
Vitaliy Ohienko elaborates on the ways Russians are abducting Ukrainian children in the article “How to Explain the Kidnapping of Ukrainian Children.”
