This week another family was reunited.\nWe managed to bring back 9-year-old Svyatoslav and his mother Victoria from the temporarily occupied territory of Kherson region. <\/p>\n\n
The boy’s older brother was waiting for the family in Ukraine.\nDue to difficulties with the documents, Sviatoslav and his mother waited almost 2 weeks for their return permits to be issued.\nOn Saturday, they managed to cross the Ukrainian border. <\/p>\n\n
The return was supported by the Charitable Foundation “Help to Leave”, the Ukrainian Child Rights Network, and the Ministry of Reintegration of the Temporarily Occupied Territories of Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n
The returns take place within the framework of Bring Kids Back UA.<\/p>\n\n
The names of the characters have been changed for security reasons.<\/p>\n\n
“The Way Home” is a project aimed at finding and returning children displaced to the Russian Federation or to the non-government controlled areas of Ukraine, as well as reuniting families whose children are without parents during the occupation. The project is implemented by the Ukrainian Child Rights Network in partnership with Save the Children in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n
Our other partners are: Ministry of Reintegration of the Temporarily Occupied Territories of Ukraine, Office of the Ombudsman of Ukraine, EDUKIDS Charitable Foundation, Media Initiative for Human Rights.The materials developed within the project do not necessarily reflect the official position of Save the Children.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7665,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_vp_format_video_url":"","_vp_image_focal_point":[]},"news_tag":[112,73],"class_list":["post-7666","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news_tag-deportation","news_tag-the-way-home"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
