Volunteers have evacuated six more children from the temporarily occupied territory of Kherson region, reported head of the Regional Military Administration Oleksandr Prokudin.

"Volunteers managed to return six children from the still occupied left bank of the region. These are two girls and four boys, aged 8 to 16. Among those returned is one foster family, which is raising a girl deprived of parental care. Her adult brother was evacuated along with her," he wrote on the Telegram channel on Tuesday.

"Thanks to the rescue operation carried out by the Save Ukraine organization, the children can forget about the horrors they experienced. In particular, about how they were forced to attend so-called ‘Russian schools’ that have more in common with enemy propaganda than with education," Prokudin noted.

According to him, in just ten months of this year, 224 children were evacuated from the occupied territory of Kherson region.
