In particular, such conclusions are contained in the report of the UN Human Rights Office, dedicated to the analysis of the impact of the war on minors. It was published today, March 21.
It is reported that the document does not explicitly state who is persuading Ukrainian teenagers to commit sabotage, but it indicates that "everything indicates that the responsibility for this lies with persons associated with Russia."
According to the Ukrainian Prosecutor General's Office, which is cited by the authors of the document, 11 teenagers aged 13 to 17 were detained in Ukraine, who were being drawn into sabotage.
They were contacted through social networks and pushed to, for example, set fire to AFU vehicles or objects of Ukrainian railway infrastructure. The money was promised to be transferred after the teenagers sent the customer a video of the arson, the report says.
