Forced deportation of children to russia

One of the gravest crimes of the Russian occupation has been the forced deportation of Ukrainian children. Children were taken from Mariupol and other captured territories deep into russia and to the temporarily occupied territories, separated from their families and cut off from Ukraine.

The Mariupol City Council is collecting testimonies about deported children in order to help establish their whereabouts, return them home and document this crime.
