The report was made by Yale’s Humanitarian Research Lab (HRL) and used mixed sources, including satellite images and open-source information. It also highlights that most likely, there are many more facilities where Ukrainian children are placed. Ukraine claims that Russia forcibly deported more than 19,500 children to Russia and Belarus. Yale’s researcher already in 2023 identified 43 camps where Ukrainian children were deported. So far, 1,600 deported children have been returned to Ukraine, according to figures from Kyiv.
