A mother of many children and her five children were successfully evacuated from the temporarily occupied Crimea as part of the Ukrainian President’s Bring Kids Back UA initiative. This was announced by the head of the President’s Office, Andriy Yermak.

According to him, the family was subjected to persecution and threats from the occupiers on the peninsula. In particular, the Russian police threatened the woman and her children with criminal prosecution for subscribing to Ukrainian news channels on her phone.

“The family is now in Kyiv and has been provided with everything necessary for integration — from working with psychologists to enrolling children in schools and kindergartens,” – Yermak said.
