Occupiers Kill 3 Children a Day

219 young Ukrainians died as a result of Russia’s attack on Ukraine

Russia came to Ukrainian soil to destroy every soul. Russian enemies do not kill soldiers, they kill women and children, older people and men. Ukrainians react most painfully to the deaths of young children. It seems that the occupiers know this and try to kill as many children as possible.

In 66 days, Russian criminals killed 219 children. Among the victims were children from several months to 16 years old. 617 children were injured. But it should be borne in mind that these data refer only to those territories in which it was officially possible to record the fact of tragedy.

Among those killed were children from 10 regions of Ukraine. The regions with the highest number of injured children are:

  • Donetsk region — 139;
  • Kharkiv region — 95;
  • Chernihiv region — 68;
  • Kherson region — 44;
  • Mykolaiv region — 43;
  • Lugansk region — 37;
  • Zaporizhia region — 27;
  • Sumy region — 17;
  • Zhytomyr region — 15;
  • Kyiv region and Kyiv — 131.

The numbers are horrifying. But even worse, the crimes against children themselves. Not only have their lives been taken, but they have been raped, beaten, shot, and burned.

It was not yet possible to determine how many children had suffered as a result of Russian aggression throughout Ukraine.
