Four children from the temporarily occupied part of Kherson region have been returned to the territory controlled by Ukraine.

This was reported in Telegram by the head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration Oleksandr Prokudin, Ukrinform reports.

“A real New Year's miracle! Four children from the still occupied left bank of the Kherson region have been returned to the territory controlled by Ukraine,” Prokudin wrote.

He specified that two boys and two girls, aged 3 to 17, were returned. “Each and every one of them experienced what no child should know - Russian terror, threats, interrogations of their relatives,” the head of the RMA emphasized, adding that the children are now with their families and are being provided with all the necessary medical and psychological assistance.

Their return became possible thanks to the initiative of President Volodymyr Zelensky Bring Kids Back UA and the work of the Save Ukraine charity organization.
