Earlier it was reported that about 14 thousand Ukrainian children were forcibly deported from the occupied territories to Russia.. So far, it is known that 400 children from Ukraine were adopted by Russian families. This was stated by human rights activist and lawyer Katerina Rashevskaya.
According to her, it is impossible to identify these children, because the Russian Federation has changed their personal data.. In most cases, parents changed not only the name of the child, but also other personal information..
