According to him, among those who were returned is a foster family that is raising a girl deprived of parental care. Her adult brother was evacuated with her. 

Thanks to the rescue operation conducted by Save Ukraine, the children can forget about the horrors they experienced.

As Prokudin pointed out, the occupiers, in particular, forced children to attend so-called "Russian schools" that have more to do with hostile propaganda than education. 

The head of the RMA also said that over the ten months of this year, 224 children from the Kherson region have been evacuated from the occupation.
