Planes and funds belonging to the administration of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin were used to illegally deport Ukrainian children. This is reported by Reuters with reference to a study by the Yale University School of Public Health, writes UNN.

It is noted that the new report, transmitted to Reuters, contains detailed information about the likely deportation program and those involved in it, including what, according to a leading researcher, are new ties with Putin.
Nathaniel Remont, executive director of the Yale University Humanities Research Laboratory, said that he plans to present the results of the study to the UN Security Council on Wednesday, December 4.
According to Raymond, the study contains evidence that supports the ICC's additional accusations against Putin of "forcibly moving" people from one national and ethnic group to another.
He also noted that the report proves that "the deportation of Ukrainian children is part of a systematic, Kremlin-controlled program" aimed at making them Russian citizens.
The report, in particular, says that in the period from May to October 2022, the Russian Aerospace Forces and aviation, which are under the direct control of the Putin administration, transported several groups of Ukrainian children on military transport aircraft with the flag of the aggressor country.
In May and October 2022, at least two groups of children were transported on planes of the Presidential Administration under the Putin administration.
In particular, on September 16, 2022, children who were illegally abducted from the occupied Ukrainian territories in Donetsk and Luhansk regions were brought to the Chkalovsky military airfield near Moscow. For their transportation, a Tu-154M aircraft of the 223rd flight detachment of the Russian Defense Ministry was used.
It is noted that the study lasted 20 months, during which analysts tracked and identified 314 Ukrainian children deported by Russia. 148 children from this list were included in Russian adoption databases, and 42 of them have already been adopted, taken into custody, or have a designated Russian Guardian. Another 166 children were placed in Russian families.
