Russia has held at least 6,000 Ukrainian children - likely many more - in sites in Russian-held Crimea and Russia whose primary purpose appears to be political re-education, according to a U.S.-backed report published on Tuesday.
The report said Yale University researchers had identified at least 43 camps and other facilities where Ukrainian children have been held that were part of a "large-scale systematic network" operated by Moscow since its February 2022 invasion of Ukraine.
The children included those with parents or clear familial guardianship, those Russia deemed orphans, others who were in the care of Ukrainian state institutions before the invasion and those whose custody was unclear or uncertain due to the war, it said.
"The primary purpose of the camp facilities we've identified appears to be political re-education," Nathaniel Raymond, one of the researchers, said in a briefing to reporters.

"This network stretches from one end of Russia to the other," Raymond said, adding that researchers believed that the number of facilities in which Ukrainian children have been held exceeds 43.
The system of camps and the adoption by Russian families of Ukrainian children taken from their homeland "appears to be authorized and coordinated at the highest levels of Russia's government," the report said, beginning with President Vladimir Putin and extending to local officials.

sounds like what our Department of Education does to Christian, conservative, heterosexual children in this country.
Every time I hear some supposed outrage being committed by a foreign government, I remember similar actions being taken in our government in the name of social justice or equity. It’s what we have become and one only needs eyes to see it.
They whackos in the DOE would do A LOT more if they thought they could get away with it,too.
Sorry, but this is at least as nutty as some of the other propaganda coming out this war. Smells like Q nonsense.
Russia found out how our school system is operating spies everywhere.
Sorry, but that sounds like a tunnel-vision blinders-on viewpoint.
They only need to take 196,000 more to break even.
Russia in 2035 will be a bad place. They won’t have enough people to keep going at their current size. I am sure China will help them “downsize.”
Your viewpoint is Russians are rescuing mole children in Ukraine from some comic version of the Deep State Cabal and you think *I* have “tunnel vision blinders on”? Rofl! Whatever became of the poor little mole children supposedly hidden in tunnels under our Captol? Did y’all forget about them?
See my post #12 on this thread.
Looks like a bunch of them here. After all this time. All the evidence of corruption by obamas puppet in Ukraine.
And the Russians on here defend Putin on this. Disgusting

Mediazona and BBC News Russian, together with a group of volunteers, have confirmed the deaths of 14,093 Russian servicemen killed in the Ukraine war before February 12. They arrived at this total using only public records and other open sources.

Compare that to more than 150,000 dead on the Ukrainian side.
