According to him, the children are between 13 and 17 years old. Among them are two children from the Oleshky orphanage in Kherson Region. 

‘The institution was deported by the occupation authorities to Russia. These children with disabilities were subjected to multiple displacements before they ended up in the territory of the now-occupied Skadovsk, from where they had a long journey home,’ Yermak said.

Qatar assisted in the return of the children. They are currently receiving all the necessary assistance for rehabilitation. 

Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets noted that the returned children include 9 children and a 20-year-old boy and his brother. Some of them have disabilities and serious illnesses. The children are from Kherson, Zaporizhzhya, Donetsk, Luhansk Regions and Crimea.
