During two months of the war in Ukraine, more than 610 children became victims in daily bombings and shelling by the russian army. 217 children were killed and more than 393 were wounded. However, the actual number of killed and wounded children cannot be determined due to active combat operations. Moreover, russian invaders continue to relocate Ukrainians from temporarily occupied territories by force. This is exactly what Nazi Germany did before. More than 500,000 Ukrainians, 121,000 of whom are children, have already been deported to russia's most depressed areas.
