A Yale study reveals that Russia is forcibly "re-educating" thousands of abducted Ukrainian children in over 210 facilities across Russia and occupied Ukraine. Children are reportedly undergoing militarization programs, including combat training and production of military equipment. The study, based on open-source data and satellite imagery, details various facility types, including camps and mental health institutions. Ukraine's "Bring Kids Back" program estimates over 19,500 children abducted, with only a small fraction returned. The ICC issued arrest warrants for Putin and a Russian official for war crimes related to child abduction. President Zelenskyy plans to address this issue at the UN General Assembly.
