An estimated 16,000 Ukrainian children have been taken to Russia or Russian-controlled territory since the start of the war. That’s according to Ukraine’s National Information Bureau.
Mykola Kuleba has been working tirelessly for the past year tracking down these children’s families, finding where they’re being held, and working to return them back home. He’s the CEO of Save Ukraine. It’s a non-profit organization providing education, humanitarian aid, and support for internally displaced families and children in war zones.

"undreds, if not thousands of Ukrainian parents don’t know where their children are. And for many, the answer is terrifying: across the frontlines and scattered across Russia, a 6.6 million square mile country that has invaded their homeland. This is the result, Ukraine and international observers say, of a systematic effort at the highest levels of the Russian government to separate Ukrainian children from their families and their identity as Ukrainians.
While Russia has contended that it has relocated children in an effort to protect them, it does not appear to be making an effort to reunite the children with their parents. Instead, observers say, it appears to be working to erase their identity through re-education and integration into Russian families.

These accusations have led the International Criminal Court to charge Russian President Vladimir Putin with violations of international law, alongside Maria Alekseyevna Lvova-Belova, the Commissioner for Children’s Rights—who adopted a Ukrainian child herself and is thought to be leading the program. Such crimes against children, some experts say, may even be evidence of genocide.
Those who are unable to rescue their children themselves must turn to others for help, including the charity Save Ukraine. Founded in 2014, the NGO has helped about 90,000 people escape the conflict in the last year. It also provided many families with short and long-term shelter and rehabilitation services to help them rebuild their lives, including trauma therapy, education and job services."...

The Russians are just like the Nazis who stole children who fit their physical profile and used them for breeding programs
