i hope that you will help us in the search , please look carefully at the face of this girl , her name is vika koroleva, she is 14 years old, she went missing in the bakhmut district of the donetsk region, in the urban-type village of novoluhansk, vika and her mother are missing and about my younger sister, we have no photo of her, almost no information, just know that vika’s sister is only four years old, and this is a photo of vika koroleva’s mother, her name is anna koroleva , a woman of the 87th year of birth it is excluded or even more likely that vika and her little sister are together with their mother, but where they are exactly is unknown. however, there are some assumptions that the village of novoluhansk is now occupied by russians, and vika koroleva disappeared just when the russian military was on the

approach and hostilities began there. of course, i really hope that the girl is alive and well and assumes that, as in most towns and villages occupied by the russians, mobile communications are jammed and ukrainian mobile operators there either do not work at all or with serious interruptions, so it is quite likely that vika and her mother simply do not have the opportunity to report themselves due to the lack of communication, by the way, it was recently possible to find nastya okopova, who disappeared in the then still occupied izyum of the kharkiv region, nothing was known about nastya for almost six months, and then she made herself known and it turned out that the girl could not make herself known. it was because of the fact that there was no mobile internet connection in the occupied territory. glushi 's connection is muffled and she was able to call me because somewhere on the wing of their at home, if i pick up the phone like you do, i can catch

the connection for a few minutes, so it is possible that vika koroleva was in the same situation, but one thing is clear - this is only a version and vika can be anywhere in the village or even abroad so i really ask for your help in the search and please look carefully at the photo of vika, she is 14 years old, 150-155 cm tall, a thin girl, she has long and blond hair and yet i would especially like to appeal to the residents of the temporarily occupied village of novoluhansk it is clear that ukrainian tv is not broadcast in the occupation, but if you suddenly see this program on the internet, you know at least something about the fate of vika koroleva and you have the opportunity to call or go online, please contact us on our hotline at the short number 116 000 or you can write to the chatbot of the search service for children in telegram without exaggeration, even the smallest

information can help us find the age of the king, now most of the children who are wanted are children who were lost due to the war in the occupation in places where hostilities are taking place or during evacuation, however, at the same time as the post-war period and beyond. unfortunately, children disappear in particular in peaceful areas and for reasons not related to the war, and a child can get lost at any time, anywhere, for example in a public place, so here are some important tips, please parents . explain to your child that if he is lost where there are many people, he should stand still and wait for his parents to return. also, the child should find an adult with a child or an elderly woman and say that he is lost, but at the same time in under no circumstances should you not go anywhere with anyone, and the most important thing for the parents themselves is not to delay , you must immediately call the police, you must also remember all the child's friends, check their activity on social networks and

contact the child tracing service on the hotline 116 000, we will advise you in detail and tell you what to do in this situation, i also ask you to go to the website of the child tracing service, there are photos of all the boys and girls who have gone missing, look at their faces carefully. maybe you will recognize someone and help find information, please inform us by a short free number from all mobile operators, number 116,000, or write to the chatbot of the child tracing service in telegram, the hottest the school was built in 1887 and
