Ukraine has brought back 47 children and teenagers from Russian-occupied territories to areas under its control in recent weeks, Save Ukraine, a Ukrainian humanitarian NGO, said in statements on July 15 and 22.
Under Russian occupation, it's nearly impossible to get medical treatment without Russian documents.
The children were brought back with the help of partners as part of the Ukrainian President's initiative, Bring Kids Back UA.
According to Ukraine's national "Children of War" database, at least 20,000 Ukrainian children have been abducted from Russian-occupied territories and taken to Russia or Russian-controlled areas since February 2022.
Some 1.6 million remain under Russian occupation, according to Bring Kids Back UA.
