the old, we can be the generation, the ends that feel good. malaria must die. so millions can live the one i'm crying. the nicole a collab, a seal, save you crammed with rescue. fond. just say of to the occupation of territories to offer it here. so on and hard to regions, we recognize that it's

a lot of children who would be an inductive fluid deported forcibly deported to the garage, or creamy or on the plan, how we can return them to your brain. so who is this for the right here? you crying to the companies on back home makes me want to cry. when we return kids, we document. this is for crimes because every child is the witness. oh, for crying. the shakes. fresh. i felt very relieved the since they

returned to ukraine 2 days ago. liza entered friends, had been staying a few kilometers outside of keys. the exact location cannot be revealed for security reasons. the, the, their families are still living in the south of the country, not far from the front line project. i'm angry at russia because of all the ukrainian children they kidnapped. supervisor proposed to an issue. we didn't want it to me as a call. know and some kids are still the new chief. we come and get them back to do that and we don't know what's going to happen to them. it came up with some project teams. you're supposed to see me, they could be anywhere. the name of the save you crane is a ukrainian n g o working to help bring deported children back home it as

a team of around 100 volunteers to push it to the time and it gives me might so this department is responsible for the deported children, we're trying to bring back to ukraine. think you can move over time. ok, you know, if you headed by miroslav a, she's a lawyer but just go separate united. so it is, 1st we get a phone call about a missing child, or we hear about it through social media or are volunteers and then liberated territories and a couple of and they're not the phone that we then look into how the child disappeared and tried to determine their current location to defend the parents or guardians often or very little about their child's whereabouts. so when it was thinking that that's why we tried to find out more information and then handled the logistical side of bringing that child back up a bit. so what the videos work begins as soon as a child disappears, the but how do these children become separated

from their families? how is russia exploding the chaos of war to a duct young ukrainians? to find out more, we had to the south of the country. russia had occupied part of this region for the best part of the year. november 2022. they were asked by ukrainian forces the to show it for you, hopefully enough test on after the liberation because the russians with on boarding it, which i will send you the details for key. it's nice here. you can see how such a thing the sun shining, and let's go back to that. i still want to go home to the long distance. alysia sobinski has 2 daughters. bureaus. lava is 7 years old. okay.

of the sophia is 15. she agrees to an interview, but doesn't want to show her face on camera. her story began shortly after the invasion, when russian forces captured the city of harris on sophia, sophia went to a ukrainian school, which in locally beloved under the patient, it was turned into a russian school. i used the fields or what do you want to do to take them that she still wanted to go or not because it was high school losing all of them. oh, she probably the teachers offered to take us to a summer camp. at 1st they talked about how cool it would be come up, but then they insisted that we go through, which is the brief availa, uh, mazda moorehead and this month cause it was the issue. what are they said? we could fake our parent's signature, but they didn't want to sign. it is sort of what we want you to into the but they

said we'd be gone for 10 days. so we get into just today. on october 14th, 2022, sophia enter schoolmates were taken by bus and then boat to a holiday camp in the russian town up in napa. 10 days later they were told they would not be returning to ukraine way unless it is. we need to to this little bit when we call the principal to ask when we'd be coming home, study of it. but he didn't answer the phone on to when we tried again and again on the for a whole 3 days ago. and he still didn't pick up on the best thing that old people to before. i was shocked envelopes like we all were. so unless you, they've said we realized that it had been a trap. so thus stick the one that our situation was hopeless. most of the go to a little schools with those are, is the 1st time doing the ship. also topics, cheese clock who know senior wrote to me on december the 20th that she wants to

come home to the don't. she said you come and get me now. if i, if you are sure, i explained it wasn't not easy and stuff. you can make any inquiries to atlanta through child that getting her back was impossible, quite down to the motion of the looks of the russians. then made an offer to sophia and the 600 other young ukrainians in her camp is cuz i never just have the questions about. they said, if you want to go home, you need a russian passport. since you 14, you don't have a ukrainian one. you need a russian one. that's possible. what could i do? i had no choice. what was that? the total with the 1st saw? no. it was a little set up to return this few children as possible to that. parents are going to be, you know, down to about the sci fi i left house on, on october the 14th and already had a russian passport on the 25th. how can

a possible be issued in just 10 days of so the best of you on april, the 9th i headed for keys wherever another mother was waiting for me for you from the week of toner bus to also for jim knoxville. and then some volunteers costs to breast in batteries, columbia or whatever. lynch is down by the time we go to the full address for single and that's quarter bone will need to go to the commercial summit solution ansible window. the west was being interrogated in batteries and russia and the people in trouble. and they questioned me for more than an hour and a hall in the middle of the night. it was emotionally exhausting for thought. they asked me where i wanted to go. sure why the questions were really intimidating.

chip it fine. yeah, the me will show over with you on some of the way to finally i was able to catch a flight to moscow. you a call came to pick me up and then we tried crimea yet, but your call at some of the pretty close on the machine. so with the repair you called in for another 3 hours later i reached sophia 13 the thing, and then we went home straight away regardless of tv that i was on april 8th, 2023. after 7 months and russia, sophia was re united with her mother you know, the, i don't realize at 1st that i was leading russia right up to the last moment. i didn't think it would happen and couldn't believe i was back in ukraine. no. so i was always desperate to come back the other day and was so happy which the hi,

this is who i was so happy that he should send you a lie of the russians doing this. but at least i guess they want to destroy people with them. but from a human point of view, i don't understand how you can do these sorts of things. just don't get to go. so events, good family story is a familiar one from the parts of ukraine that came under russian occupation. thousands of ukrainian children were brought to what were supposedly vacation caps? the the camps are part of the campaign of total rest education. daria, here to some truck is an advisor on children's rights to the ukrainian president. she says what's happening to ukrainian children in russian camps. it's a form of indoctrination. could you tell them what they're not allowed to say

they're ukranian speak ukrainian or talk about their families for 4 years and you instead, they're taught the russian language, russian culture and history overseas costano every day begins with the russian national anthem, so that there's a good move if the child refuses to stand up or sing. there, denied food, or punished you from below gigi. this video was shot 9 months into the war. it shows young ukrainians from the occupied territories being taken to a rather unusual holiday camp in chechnya. 8 the phone and the young people here are given a patriotic, spiritual and moral education. in this camp and crimea, russian president vladimir putin himself gave an address to hundreds of teenagers including young ukrainians from occupied territories. or hello everyone

during can by tech, which is home for everyone who took part in our great change competition were now welcoming young people from all regions of our nation. see if you end up measures put on the vacation camp, such as these are a legacy of the former soviet union. we were able to film one of these camps from a careful distance a historian who wish to remain anonymous due to the harsh repression of critical voices in russia. explained the idea behind these camps who were in leningrad region in the village of covent most in petersburg. the summer camp on the other side of that fence was built in the soviet to the rest of the new parents would send the children on vacation here and pay next. and nothing to do to the parents

could receive vouchers that was in order to send the children to these camps. she says there are still more than 3000 camps like this across russia. ukrainian children end up sent as far away as siberia becomes had a military style routine and still do compare the daily schedules in terms of foam and structure of the system set up in the 19 twenty's hasn't changed. nothing has changed the past on in southern ukraine was occupied by russian forces for almost 9 months since its liberation by ukrainian forces. it's continued to come under relentless

bombardment as part of a program of rest of vacation moscow, even abducted ukrainian children or from local orphanages not much. i mean, when the war began, there were 52 children between the age of 3 and 18 living here. and that's the federal law, dns stuff i dock is the director of a rehabilitation center for children in harris on the floor with most of the children's rooms are on the 1st floor. there is a ticket. the 2nd month of this one is for teenagers as the lower boys lived here on file. now, this is our tree of joy with photos of the 52 children who lived here during the occupation were local. but seeing stories about

children being deported, spread like wildfire through the occupied areas. although the mayor had also heard the rumors before the russians arrived at his orphanage. and now how many of shaw icon, if i don't hide the kids or we're not evacuated? and then the same thing is going to happen here to up, well, they'll end up in russia up on this. it doesn't mean with it really is, it doesn't mean stroke when it became clear that we weren't going to be evacuated and we're on our own. yep. i started thinking about how to hide with the kids, some of the some or something like that. yeah. and that's a good thing. we had 17 kids in the homes of staff members, teachers and nurses, and social workers that make the whole other story to and to be on the safe side. we invented fake background stories for them

is also a certificate. in the end, 5 teenagers were left a couple messages. i'm actually or see damage that when the russians arrived on june 4th, but actually they were with me. it seemed like the russians. a rifle was filmed in secret and maybe a little bit more on the video, you can see the door opening it. the footage came from the centers, surveillance cameras, said who is the security guard? let's in to f s b officers and to soldiers to masked and armed soldiers demand to be shown around the orphanage. they want to know where the children are. one of the f s. b officers is seen checking the orphanages records the but he doesn't find what he's looking for

the, the, the mirror and the 5 teenagers say nothing of interest because i have to show these kids are real patriots. but the one thing when they didn't want to talk to the russian down on us, because all they just said they were fine and didn't need anything. because all that and they refused to have their photos taken from the russians, didn't take the teams with them. apparently because they were too few of them a few kilometers away, the russians continued their search and the maternity clinic and the children's hospital here to the children were saved. thanks to the courage of staff members, the task that i'm not recorded, not these windows look out to him to the need for risa people. as the whole,

the russians shut the tests from the other side of the stomach messiah land detail and new year's eve. we piled up some bags against the windows, so for. ready ready this baby was born in the 30th week and had a serious pneumonia. we were caring for the baby. all the maternity clinics were attacked by missiles, every single one. and then my 2 soldiers entered the hospital and then pretending to be doctors. unfortunately, our head physician gave them a warm welcome thing a lot. as a potential was they told us to hand over a list of the children, so they could be evacuated immediately. but we knew what that would mean this

minute. so we changed the children's medical records to make them appear sicker than they were done. they were just set up a fake intensive care unit to, to complete with monitors, electrocardiogram machines and all the other equipment even the issued reports twice daily. that said, the children were too sick to be transferred or what it's in that you to hold on to me is lead for every day at the status of my shift. my colleagues would tell me in the hon, david, that the children in serious condition would too sick to be transferred. if our boss had stopped by, he'd have seen through it immediately, much of that. fortunately, he didn't come by the boxes. these are the reasons why we put the supposedly sick children, the honey risk of the entire team for keeping them from being taken to russia, crimea, or even further away that on the screen. it does show both i'm. one of the class

strategy was a joint effort given additional and no one broke ranks, and the russians didn't manage to deport any of the children. eventually, her son was liberated by the ukrainian army because we were so happy to see the russians leave. we were a bit scared at 1st and then just relieved they were gone. we many ukrainians risk everything to hide children. and for russia, keeping children in vacation camps was just the 1st step. the rest of vacation program organized by moscow went well beyond that. the

even woodkalski and maxine boy managed to escape, they came very close to never seeing ukraine again. mock seem as an orphan. yvonne's mother lost custody of him. the 2 teenagers now live in an orphanage at the 1st slide cuz i don't really like, we don't like this guy, which is why we put this on the door. so design it so that everyone knows what we think a bunch of couple of my ukraine will when. okay, and depending on the 2 boys story began in mario book, one month after the war started, they shot this video on march 20th 2022. on the morning after a night of bombardment, which slo,

on march 20th. we set up for him on horse on foot, reaching the scrum. good at the mongol sweet past when he used to be a ukrainian check point, but was now a russian one envelope. the e not from there, we weren't taken to the hospital. so what i'm really a head nurse heard that we were orphans, had substantially mrs. 1000 all the time. we get to sit up there and because man hush was now occupied was a political party. they called the social welfare office and don't yet i need those . we need to ask the to the next morning, people arrive to pick us up and get some safety unless any of the boys were subjected to russian propaganda from the day of the rab duction. with a camera running, the pro russian may or claim to be their rescuer, even wearing a medical smocks for greater credibility. what are you listening to the doctors and

taking your medicine? yes. then you'll be doing better soon. thank god you got out of there alive. the war is now over for you, your home, and you'll grow up in a caring and safe environment. you'll be in good hands if you can get back to your daily lives, including school. we'll take care of everything. and you can reach me showing that we didn't expect that, but now we still haven't been able to recover from audio. pub is the number kind of half of sleep media plus all i couldn't sleep properly. and then he comes along promising all this stuff, providing a way to success, which they said we could go to high school. and just one week's time and promise we'd be in a really nice or for an inch quarter change. but we stayed in the hospital competitors. nothing happened in showing you insurance. they interrogated us twice because our conversations were suspicious and took up the never

a lot of children from audio post and with us to don't. yeah. it's could been separated from their parents and when their parents no longer had custody. sing as fast as a summer. yvonne and maxime had their teacher, anton victoria bitch, to think for their return to ukraine. take a seat. 3 months after their arrival in the next. you pick them up from occupied territory just in time to should be so. thank god, they weren't taking the russia all the other children were promised that they would return. but none of them did. philip was in that group to maria live of a beloved, adopted him, and even boasted about giving him a phone for his birthday. so heroic god forgive me, but i wish she were dead because this is maria level. but below of, with the boy she forcibly adopted to that. and this is her on february 16th

2023. talking to a vladimir put visa. i've been visiting hospitals in particular regions, the treating children injured by explosions. it's shocking to head, but they say they were shopped in the back by ukrainian soldiers, especially in mary. you po, maria live over below, but as rushes presidential commissioner for children's rights personally appointed by black to mapleton. that'll explain something to you. since the beginning of the war, she's made repeated public appearances, an occupied areas, housing on camera, at the bedside of ukrainian children. what's it for? how much, how it will help me get better. such a level that that low encourages russian families to adopt children deported from ukraine. so this is the final phase and the program abreast of vacation,

coordinated together with vladimir putin. i'm going to do some tests. we've compiled a list of children who already have the required documentation, meaning russian citizenship plan are the ones who want russian, which means that rather administrative rules that we have to respect to tell me which ones you mean and we'll get around them. customers right now, we have to prioritize the children's interest over bureaucracy. 2 months after that conversation, to consigned to decree, making it easier for russian families to adopt ukrainian children. the russian propaganda machine immediately swung into action with documentaries like this one apparently showing ukrainian children living happy lives after their forced adoption by russians is my nice big family. my dad man, my beloved mom the international criminal court in the hague accused.

maria live up and over and flat. it may put enough war crimes and issued arrest warrants for overseeing the abduction and deportation of children. the which i law are so young and the russian meteor of course, said the kidnapped ukrainian children. what evacuated as a new blanch of kindness for their own good. why do you know that so nonsense for the decisions made by the russian authorities to make it easier to change children's nationality and adopt them prove that they never had any intention of returning the children in school room and also cleans condition? so it should prove that this is not an evacuation for, according to off, it goes russia, abducted $2.00 to $300.00 thousands ukrainian children to the ceo because we have specific evidence of a deep taishan of some $19400.00 children instead of knots at the foot sofa, we finally managed to bring $366.00 of them back home that she did. they

philip still lives with the woman who adopted him. maria level of alova. yvonne who survived the assault on mario paul, has been in touch with him. since that awesome and i write to him regularly, he tells me how he's doing, why i ask how they're treating him, even with them to what he seems to be. okay. but he doesn't like that. the woman works for that guy who's in the car. he's staying a beat and it's still probably ukraine and okay. now as the war continues, ukraine is determined to liberate other areas from occupation. and many believe that children there have also been deported. the, the sales out, the stadium champion,

robert s t o knows how to make the most out of this thing out. people call your on your next to me, please let us know for him. it's not about the concerts this about the climate. he wants people in his home country to plant a 1000000 treats his friends are all in africa in such a minutes. on d, w. the islands along the river are home to the challenges of bangladesh. every 6 months, their land, it's flooded by time. for the funny does actually be the last few, but he's over. yes. i don't funny. the i'm a bit populated stuff to do is give you the never ending cycle of destruction and rebuilding the in 75 minutes on d. w. we are all set with what seemed close to

him to bring you the story behind the news. we wrote about unbiased information for 3 months. the . this is deed of your news, and these are our top stories. previous, usually enough, all night, the window of russian opposition figure alexia wyoming. as we choose writing reporting of killing her husband invalid to continue his work. in a video posted on social media, she called on supporters to resist booking and fight for what she called a free russian. so far, russian authorities have prevented them all and his family and allies from seeing his body, which many dentist was a member of these really war cabinet, has issued an ultimatum. same israel would launch a ground offensive,

rough march 10th. the start of ramadan from us doesn't.
