Ten Ukrainian children from four families have been successfully rescued from Russian-occupied territories, thanks to the dedicated efforts of Save Ukraine in collaboration with Bring Kids Back UA. These brave children, who come from southern Ukraine, are now safely back home, marking another significant step in our mission to reunite families torn apart by the war.
Among them are two orphans, and two children whose fathers serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. One family was threatened with the loss of their five children simply because they refused to attend Russian propaganda lessons. The parents were taken to the police, and Russian forces even seized the Ukrainian passports of the father and eldest brother. Thankfully, this family has now found safety.
In another story, two brothers aged 6 and 8 were reunited with their mother after more than 2.5 years apart. Their journey back was particularly challenging because their father serves in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and they were wanted by Russian authorities. Now, after a long separation, the family is finally together again.
