According to Zarivna, the return took place within the framework of the Bring Kids Back UA state initiative of the President of Ukraine.
Within the framework of the Bring Kids Back UA initiative of the President of Ukraine, a 17-year-old boy was returned home after a long stay in the occupation and forced departure to Russia.
She said that during the full-scale invasion, the teenager was left alone in the village, which quickly came under the control of the occupiers.
At the beginning of the full-scale invasion, he found himself alone in a village that was very quickly captured by the occupiers. His mother and younger sister remained in the territory controlled by Ukraine, and communication with them almost disappeared.
According to her, the boy made a difficult decision, trying to return home.
In the face of constant danger, the boy was forced to go to Russia in search of a way to return home.
Currently, as she reported, the child is already in Ukraine and has reunited with his family.
Zarivna assured that the state will continue to work to return all Ukrainian children.
We will not stop until every Ukrainian child is safe.
Currently, the family is receiving comprehensive support.
