On Tuesday, November 10, five children were returned to the controlled territory of Ukraine as part of the President's Bring Kids Back UA program, as well as three adults.

This was reported by Dmytro Lubinets, the Commissioner for Human Rights of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine.

According to him, three teenagers who recently turned 18 returned home.

«Two of them were in Russia, where they were under pressure and restrictions. After reaching adulthood, they decided to return to their native land. Another guy, left without relatives, was able to escape from the occupation and left the temporarily occupied territory of the Zaporizhzhia region,» noted Dmytro Lubinets.

In addition, it was possible to return a family of four people, including children aged 11 and 14, to the territory of Ukraine.

A 77-year-old grandmother, who could not leave the occupied territory on her own, also received help.

We will remind, three children who were on the temporarily occupied left bank were returned to Kherson region.

Also, earlier, six children were successfully returned to Ukraine from the temporarily occupied territories as part of the Bring Kids Back UA initiative.
