A mandatory evacuation of all children has been ordered in 10 communities in the Dnepropetrovsk Region, the head of the regional military administration, Alexander Ganzha, said. "A mandatory evacuation of children has been ordered. A total of 222 families with 364 children are to leave the area," Ganzha wrote on his Telegram channel. Local authorities in Ukraine have repeatedly ordered evacuations as the front line has moved closer. On March 2, Vladimir Zelensky signed a law allowing the mandatory evacuation of children from active combat zones without parental consent.
