More than 23 thousand Ukrainian citizens are being held by the Russian occupiers in temporary accommodation centers in different regions of Russia. Of these, 6127 are children. Most of the people were taken from Ukraine to remote regions under the pretext of "evacuation" from the Kherson region and other temporarily occupied territories.
This was reported by the press service of the National Resistance Center.
The post says that the Russians did not care about the safety and comfort of the "evacuated" residents of Ukraine. The main goal of the invaders is to assimilate as many Ukrainians as possible into Russian society, to use them as cheap but reliable labor. Moreover, the Kremlin plans to increase the number of such temporary accommodation centers from 314 to more than 400 in the near future. For this purpose, the corresponding amount is provided in the "federal" budget of the terrorist country.
The press service also added that the crime of the Putin regime in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine is the export of Ukrainian children to Russia. One of the many examples is that the Russian Children's Rights Commissioner Maria Lvova-Belova, together with the occupation authorities, took four children from the Oleshky Orphanage for Children with Special Needs, located in the Kherson region, to Penza.
The Resistance Center noted that international law prohibits the transfer of people from the occupied territories, regardless of their age or health status. Forced displacement of civilians without good reason can be considered a war crime, and in some cases a crime against humanity.
Earlier it was reported that three boys aged 13 to 17 were returned to the territory controlled by Ukraine. Two of them are residents of the Oleshky orphanage. Children from this orphanage with special needs were taken by the occupiers to Skadovsk and Russia.
A 16-year-old boy and an 18-year-old girl who were deprived of parental care were returned to Ukraine from the temporarily occupied Kherson region to the government-controlled territory.
