Another 12 children returned to government-controlled territory
According to Ukrinform, the head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration, Oleksandr Prokudin, reported this in a message on Telegram.
"Three boys and 9 girls, aged 2 to 17 years, one of them deprived of parental care, were taken from the temporarily occupied Kherson region," the statement reads.
It is noted that the charity organisation Save Ukraine worked to rescue the children. It is thanks to its hard work that children and their parents are on free land and safe, and are being assisted by specialists.
Since the beginning of 2024 alone, 120 children from Kherson Oblast have been returned to the government-controlled territory.
Prokudin expressed his gratitude to everyone who is making efforts to return Ukrainian children from the occupation.
As Ukrinform reported, in autumn 2022, the Armed Forces of Ukraine liberated the right-bank part of Kherson region, including the city of Kherson. Part of the region, located on the left bank of the Dnipro River, is temporarily occupied by Russian troops.
