russians involved minors, including children taken from the occupied Ukrainian territories, in the production of Iranian kamikaze drones in Tatarstan.
In Tatarstan, the russians involved minors in the production of "Shahed" kamikaze drones. Among them are children taken from the occupied territories of Ukraine. This is reported by the Center of National Resistance, UNN reports.
Details
It is noted that activists of the Cyber Resistance group handed over to the Center evidence confirming the involvement of underage civilians in the production of weapons.
In particular, the documents include lists of teenagers enrolled in the Alabuga Polytechnic School, their passports and parental consent. Earlier, Cyber Resistance activists reported that on the territory of the so-called Alabuga Special Economic Zone (Tatarstan), russians launched the production of Iranian Shaheed-136 (Geranium-2) strike UAVs.
A document preceding the visit of the First Deputy Prime Minister of the russian Federation, Andrei Belousov (who also serves as the head of the government commission for the development of unmanned aerial systems), states that the planned production capacity of the Geranium-2 drones is 10,000 units for 2024. For the sake of secrecy, the production of shaheeds is called the "Dolphin Project"
The activists said that Alabuga Polytech is an educational cluster based on the Alabuga SEZ. Its task is to train future personnel of Alabuga enterprises. However, given that Alabuga has become a military facility, the actual task of Politeche is to train personnel for the russian military-industrial complex.
According to the documents, the capacity of the Polytech is 1300 students per year. Thanks to the activists of the Cyber Resistance, the CNS has a database of 1209 names and phone numbers of students of the 2023 class. These are mostly minors who are in grades 9 through 11 and undergo training and internships.
It is noted that 539 students are assigned to a project called "chovny" (russian for "boats"). "Motor boats" is a code name for the production of russian UAVs.
Students are involved in electrical installation, aeronautical navigation, industrial equipment, laboratory and chemical analysis, industrial robotics, numerical control, and more.
In addition, the National Resistance Center recorded one child among this list of children of the CNS who was taken by russians from the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine. This is confirmed by the Ukrainian phone number.
This is yet another manifestation of the brazen cynicism of the aggressor, who is committing deliberate genocide of Ukrainians in the TOT and taking Ukrainian children for assimilation in the territory of the russian Federation. Even more horrifying is the fact that Ukrainian minors are being forced by the aggressor to produce weapons
Addendum
The Center for National Resistance called on all international organizations to condemn another violation of international law by the aggressor.
The CNS emphasizes that this is a deliberate transformation of children into combatants, which puts them in danger. And the involvement of Ukrainian children in this is a double crime of the aggressor for which those involved will be punished.
Recall
In winter, the Center for National Resistance stated that the russians plan to involve children living in the temporarily occupied territories in the production of drones. Children will be taught about technologies, design features, and assembly of UAVs for military purposes at school labor lessons
