g is unlocking the potential of deep sea mining. but this time, a research team will study the possible risks 1st. in order to minimize them. we have an opportunity to to get it right before we can stuff, environmental activists or skeptical. after a whole, there are billions to be made. our 2 part documentary deep sea greed starts to think on d. w. c . trains are fighting in suspension against russian aggression. a desperate yet determined battle for the rights to the side their own future. and yet, as they do so, part of the future is already in russian hands. the trying to change the identity, the culture. it's very easy when you showing them 1st killing via

parents, 1st raping the are mother's 1st and then telling we can or for you supposedly or not to you. i look forward to you that said scott. some we both knew people will laugh. do you chief corresponding with just the phone number of them is optimum with us. that in itself is a violation of the geneva conventions and international law. because the geneva conventions are very clear that children should be able to go home. russia is being accused of deporting ukrainian children from occupied territories, and they proceeded as an elaborate the,

the russian president vladimir puts it has been indicted for war crimes by the international criminal court. but it's not the mass cruise of butcher or the mass graves of easy room, or the bombing of a fearful of children in the city of my to your pull that have led to these charges . it is the a legit, systematic deportation of ukrainian children to try me and russia. we're taking a closer look at how and why the russians are doing this and how ukrainian women are getting the children back. the children are protected under the 1949 geneva conventions. there are special guidelines for their treatment if they're separated from their parents during war.

particle for states that children are to be evacuated to safe areas when possible. and we united with their families. the russians don't hide the fact they've taken children from your training. these pictures like others, we will show you in this report, come from russian state media. their authority, say the vacuum added them for their own safety. but they have failed to establish communication with their families. and don't seem to be sending them back. did you need? the conventions are very clear that children should be able to go home. they shouldn't be transferred to a 3rd party country. they should be able to call their parents, and they should be registered with the red cross in the united nations. so this is nathaniel raymond, of the yale university humanitarian research lab. there open source investigation revealed what they call the large scale deportation and re education of you training children by the russian federal government. this is where they are

being taken from parts of ukraine that the russians have occupied, like the have southern region. and this is where they're being taken to the report identified a network of at least 43 locations across crimea and russia. they're mostly camps and places around the black sea to you cut out inboard in central russia. and even the far east the researchers have records of at least 6000 children who have been taken to these places, which creams onwards. women for children's rights believes the figure could be much higher way. but i am wish to see you what color police could work. so the search creams because it did a quick shawna. so who would need that done? and when that's another one for them and seen the whole pathology to be late. when most of the pl budget, the typical she's not to face which of these 2 devices she did, those that came up with us. you thought you new person on you're done. it is like

you off of it. let's give out all the chief. you can choose my you almost city to keep up with me. so look on the other pro fox, the put the teacher for them a single permission of the to me. no one knows how many children haven't taken it is impossible to keep track of what's going on and still occupied territory. and some families have complicated reasons for not going to the authorities. but no matter what estimates you take behind, every number is a child. and in most cases, a family trying to get them back. we met such a woman and has shown in january while her daughter was still missing the . this is victoria. from the city of her son was occupied by russian forces for 8

months. during that time, her daughter katya was taken to training. here we, senior year is sod doing this. if this was child gets the visible, the money goes to the warranty. the withdrawal is nationwide and you have to as also, besides the children of some, not as a phones allowing you to look up also send you a gift before she is allowed. katya was 12 when the war started a sensitive and creative little girl. she withdrawn right poems and fairy tales, and yet she knew what was going on. her mother tells us on the whole post all the confusion that they have just and we'll get this thing on. there's no but thank you for you. i'm the for stay on the mostly noticing vision. i'm was just the spot,

the saw symbol of her story. yes. if i size technical will scroll again, that's in your book slash them block and then you just give the e stuff them up on the salem. know can on the series of the professor symbol, which is caution and the some of the post of civil she wanted the culture away from the explosions to continue in the distance even though the russians are long gone. and the camp she spoke of, that's the holiday camp. she said katya to thinking it would be safe. she accepted an invitation from teachers who were under pressure by occupation authorities to move the children in the logs, all which for to get more pork and most of which worked with them. but old style, you origin, i'm going to to you just to do to just 30 for the whole month of knowledge car to

the is the list the, or the document with the to you the why? his, the result, the ship modeling, keeping of the shakespeare, the gift capability, and simulate the voice simply and with the law office of small group of knowledge. so now it's mom of so what are the things as soon as the school of this world needs the, the russians didn't depend on families sending their kids away from the fighting. they'd often target the most vulnerable, taking children directly from single mothers and struggling financially. and they'd go after places where groups of children lived without their parents level.

so they knew closer to the federal, careful with us a bit of a dollar sup nicholas. this is valerie met aside to use the director of what used to be a children's home. kids would stay here for what he calls social and psychological rehabilitation. when the full scale invasion started, he knew they were at risk. okay. you need e mails. i biggest, similar. okay. okay. so serious about okay or much of a say virtually ex landscape then that's going to see and was a good thing. he oh yes not so a couple just actual yeah, you show hundreds of all the got which is okay. but you go with a enough, so my opinion was but as long as it's my bas novice escape that the he decided to move in with the children to better protect the special no of the

lack of payment as a temp of the member for the level of it, so next i don't have my 5th message for lane course now to pull the code the less so they've to the side duck new keeping a low profile would only work for so long. and then at some point, the russians would show up for the children. so he moved them to private homes. some went to distant relatives, others were taking them by employees. this almost ended in disaster. when a driver taking the kids out accidentally revealed at a rushing check point that he'd come from the center. it was thanks to a quick thinking teenager who heard their cover story that they got to we. the teacher was pretending to be the children's hands. against illustrates of the visual to state of buffalo social stuff. so give it to me cuz that's it. okay. will not block party and strategically approval of the whole number portable up at

a certain that you have on that both of us that slow slow. no, he is a china usually push stainless i know i would use because i would have to shut off the precious. but the better today. oh, becoming less thoughts um, as a general trip to see, to say, it was an episode with the children like villages aside that was trying to protect form one group. i didn't find by the researchers at their report. russians claim to remove children from you, creating institutions for their safety or for medical care. but once in russian control territory, the children are given russian citizenship and absorbed into the system. they are sometimes adopted by russian families. it can be impossible to trace them. i don't see how the usual level of us to agree is case studies abroad, digit they and the people who are visual no, hold on. so when you,

when you thought of him go to daughter, elizabeth and you know, i did this almost exactly a number, especially with that authority. he's just them for us to someone who, who you, who comes out. the other group is made up of children like cots, young children, with families. they think they're sending their children to a free holiday camp in crimea or russia. but the children undergo, we education and in some cases, military training. and most importantly, they don't come back home. the reason they send their kids away, like katya many trust the teachers who make the offer. so they have deep and long lasting relationships with these teachers. second aspect is that they've signed it, and we've seen these documents, power of attorney forms, giving consent over to the russian government where russia does not sign the blank part on the controlling authority. and so they've been using power of attorney in an open ended way that, that invalidates international definitions of consent. and so basically it was

a trap. victoria from her son says she fell into such a trap. only after a while did she realize what she had done to the new facility? this is the show. i'm sure it really simple to as a personnel not to go to sleep. so i'm just a, globally or from, you know, a new, a cell phone, a, a knowledge store along this gives a new me was going to cause all store with them. we knew it, i knew it was getting it to them with the, the discussion so strong as hosking. nicholas douglas, someone was just the solution you will seriously. it's important to belong to some of those other because you seem to hold on to the kids at side. that center did not end up in the hands of the russians,

but it was close to shows us the cctv footage of their visit. men with guns forcing their way into a children's home. let us see i'm in this is mostly checking room is oh, so just so you have a football. so you can just say, man is also a sensitive to patch and little stuff loves the color. when i personally, when i shall color to the deep my temperature the minute that you get the pressure that happened at that. so the sleep uh was it came on there personally. well, what he did was incredibly dangerous. he knows that's what he believes, preventing the children being uprooted and having their identity stolen was worth the risk. and that's a bit of a 2nd. oh, so they mentioned this and that's club technician e c,

the said do the family. i cannot believe center number that will valid so that will be affordable. they can cause that some of them them a battery, but which may typically for that i feel as if they other both for better for you pursuing the queue. but some of this for that i said, well i'm very well g mchugh, you can them diploma. holly was just a see, so thoughts the so who is responsible for all of this, these are not isolated cases, thousands, potentially tens of thousands of ukrainian children have been taken to dozens of camps in premiere, and all of a rush. this takes people, planning, organization, and money. and then russia, that has to come in some way from the top. so we know pull it in here on the

left. what, what does it does? but look at the woman he's talking with. she is russia's commissioner for children's rights, maria volva. and just like her boss has been indicted by the international criminal court for abducting ukrainian children. and she's even taking part, personally the moment not to get there should have been in the eyes of the kremlin. this does make her a work criminal, but a leading humanitarian. they are linked to these abductions in 3 major ways. one is that putting issued a decree, giving ukrainian children citizenship in russia last year in may. second is that the government, russia has changed the law to allow adoption of ukrainian children in to provide

a approximately $200.00 a month bonus for russian families that adopt ukrainian kids. 3rd is that this is a hold of government approach that for regional governors have been a central for facilitating and funding the transfer of ukrainian children into russia and their deportation. so we have established the russian leadership, including the russian president himself, have directly order these child abductions. we know they have made it easier for russian couples to adopt these children. and they've been given russian citizenship . russ, if occasion is a term that we've heard of lots in that context, forcing children to give up their identity and essentially become a russian and it's something that infuriates ukrainians. see this as an attack from their country. so supposedly a lot to you, i look forward to u g. that's

a desktop assembly. both knew it was one way of a huge chief course blowing over them with zada melinda belonged to them unless the chief port on and you do choose. so i'm in the field, the d seems to hold a huge, missed on what kind of dog gives me. interesting one of my dogs to what to do. she's not so the people from what doesn't receive school. so that's the assess the year, the to each from york optima. so the credit school, not all the channels, the credit score, we did the summer say you come with the people that will accept the adult will show boys. if you pick one up there, a more suited you say you can look the list but enough truth the, but a lot the up on the some you flip the what a bunch of sweet was the book you. and again, this has been going on for a while while while it say plus should the vehicle in additional credits was on it . one of the specialists we ordered is, are 2 additional horizontal move to the, to put you have to go on next you cream, which with the knots at the middle to cool, just what are you with them?

so let me put you on the do you, are you crazy? so hold on went down to cisco. so there are 2, none to zip on the horse in the crew. none of the coil so moment. okay, that's good. but there are other, more practical reasons to do this. it's not just an attack on ukraine for the russian leadership, such a policy is important to send messages to russians. this represents a very powerful way to say that we are saving these children from purported nazis. that is really the heart of the program. you can see that they're proud of it and they're communicating publicly about it because that's the goal. this is really a performance for a domestic political audience, and people have to understand that this is not a secret operation. this is a public relations point on the core level for the ukrainians. it's systematic childcare for the russians. this issue, monetary, in operation, before observers,

it's a hostage situation. the most disastrous thing in a way has already happened, which is they take the kids and why is that so catastrophic? well, now russia has leverage, and they have leverage that they didn't have before in terms of any prisoner of negotiation or negotiation. about sufficient possibilities. they took the kids and that is a fundamental leverage whether it was intended or not leverage strategy is now available to the russians. and they know that the so what's can be done to get back kids who have disappeared into the russian system . in most cases, there is little hope. there is no system in place and no official cooperation between the ukrainian and russian side. finding the children is the 1st big

challenge. most have no way of communicating with their families, and authorities often move them around. and even if like victoria did parents know where their children are, they have to go get them. and this is usually only an option for mothers, because men of fighting age cannot leave the country. victoria had to go from sun to crimea. usually they would take 4, maybe 5 hours of driving, but going directly is no longer a safe option. she had to travel through ukraine, neighboring poland, cross into russia, a line bela roost, and then through enemy territory, about 3000 kilometers in total beach way, the back home victoria arrived on this bus with her daughter katya.

there 2 of the group has done the journey together. not yet did not know her mother was coming for her. victoria and other mothers could only do this with the aid of the n g o save ukraine. the help with the logistics passports, buses, and navigating the borders the bullock on this note since last night. and the last couple of last ones are in your system. so the whole lot of the findings for mazda, of the premiums are full list of the issue was

victoria and comforts you'll tell us, getting the kids out of the camps was not an issue once the mothers with their but before hand teachers had told katya a very different story because i loved them. the motion will show a national mode is put together so seriously is involved the kids here tell us that the camps weren't all that bad. they were not treated poorly, they say, but they were not allowed to go home. or even talk with their parents these girls think they know why and what are the zip additional for that to for us is a person of variety of coverage. you can put them or somewhere different,

just they said, the man to help them leave has a different theory. it's ross and strategy for children. it's through sci fi, ukrainian children. that's why they no need to be them. and torture though. it is a child, a child brain is so flexible, if you, every day feeds via brain of your poison from your propaganda poison. and during one month to month, this child will say, oh, russia is maybe not bad. it's the a strategy to date save ukraine has managed to facilitate 96 returns, but they're getting increasingly difficult. the adults can look like needs to miss the see the numbers with different vendors than the new stuff for you

and your protocols, not as high as to do to fly here to understand they have instructions not allow the children go home. yeah. jobs during this nation. we recognize that they trying to block any returns to crane. you have the same documents, official representatives, mothers bought the towing stupid things that oh it's forbidden. what to go back with the, with your parents, the child know if you cross the border and to roger, you cannot go back. this and g o n t ukrainian authorities are working hard to get back the stolen children like these, with they know without. but there is an unspoken issue, which is making things difficult. the fear of stigma, i mean some families are too scared to report their children missing and they could

be lost forever. one of the, the, the critical things that need to have happened right now is that in many cases, the parents are most worried about the reaction in ukraine to being seen as a collaborator in terms of having sent their kids initially in some cases. and also worried about being seen as a collaborator in terms of going into russia to retrieve their children. and so there is a critical role that the ukrainian government needs to play at the level of the president and the senior leadership of the government. if you pray the transport administrative mutual collab january said that the mass abduction of ukrainian children was one of the most. i'm the reported issues of the war. but

a lot has happened since then. investigations have not only led to 14 and love of the lover being indicted by the international criminal court. other russian officials and members of the ukrainian occupational forties have also been sectioned. vacations are serious. with the russians call evacuations. the lenses can be considered an active genocide of russia is almost completely isolated from the west. like many other countries, home to around 2 thirds of the world's population are either neutral or russian leaning jail investigator. nathaniel raymond says the duct tunes are clearly against international law that if anything was needed to prompt undecided countries to condemn russia. this should be, it is about weighing a marker on the table for the international community, for those countries that have not yet denounced the child abduction program and

have not yet and down to denounce the russian invasion of ukraine. and i think that is powerful in terms of creating diplomatic leverage on russia to change the course and gets the criminal shows no sign of change. of course, you investigators say at least 2 facilities and rush are giving teenage ukrainian boys military training. 14 in love. i believe i say the program will be expanded if it's proven successful. the concern is these children can be sent back to ukraine and forced to fight their own. the war against ukraine has been going on for well over a year now. allied countries have become increasingly involved each time western countries took another step to help you print against russia. the questionnaire rose. how to avoid provoking putting how to prevention from doing something, even worse than what she already started for thousands of ukrainian families. the

russians have already made their worst nightmares come true. as they took the kids, [000:00:00;00] the frankfurt international gateway to the best connection, south la road and radio, located in the heart of europe. you are connected to the old world experience
