Ukraine has managed to rescue two more Ukrainian teenagers from occupation and from the territory of the Russian Federation. This was announced by the head of the Presidential Office Andriy Yermak, reports UNN.

According to him, now both teenagers are finally safe, in the territory of Ukraine controlled by the government, where they are undergoing rehabilitation and preparing to enter a Ukrainian university.
