Eight Ukrainian children and teenagers have been rescued from Russian-occupied territory, bringing the total number of children rescued through the Bring Kids Back UA initiative to nine. The initiative, led by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, reported the rescue on November 13, highlighting the stories of three of the rescued children.
Among them was 16-year-old Maksym, who narrowly escaped Russian forces after being forced to obtain a Russian passport to leave the occupied territory. Other rescued individuals include five-year-old Matvii, who faced threats from Russian occupation forces, and 19-year-old Vlad, who endured pressure from teachers due to his Ukrainian identity.
The rescued children are now undergoing reintegration at Hope and Recovery centers, receiving psychological support, assistance with documents, and safe shelter. The initiative thanked its partners for their support and emphasized their commitment to bringing all Ukrainian children back home.
