The ministry's message in the Telegram channel says that the corresponding decision was unanimously supported by members of the Ukrainian coordination headquarters.

We are talking about the evacuation of children from settlements, where, according to Kiev, a critical security situation is recorded.

A list of settlements is not given. The evacuation will be carried out by five special police crews.

On April 2, Ukrainian media reported that Ukrainian authorities had decided to forcibly evacuate children from Ukrainian-controlled Sloviansk.

In early October 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin approved the ratification of treaties and signed federal constitutional laws on the adoption of the DPR, LPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions into Russia.
