Luhansk Regional Military Administration reports on Telegram.

Only according to the Russian authorities, 300 children from temporarily occupied territories of the Luhansk and Donetsk regions were sent to Moscow: "it is difficult to imagine how many children from our region were deported to other settlements of the Russian Federation under the pretext of hospitalization."

The Luhansk Administration reminded that in fall of 2022, visiting teams of Russian doctors conducted examinations of children in almost every city of Luhansk region, sometimes teachers took money from children for the opportunity to be examined. 300 of these girls and boys were sent to Moscow’s medical facilities, they were allegedly found to have "serious injuries", and doctors on the spot provided them with first aid.

"And then, with the help of special transport or sanitary aviation, patients were taken to Moscow, where they continued to undergo treatment and rehabilitation. Before the arrival of Russian occupying forces, children and parents did not even know about their dire condition," Luhansk Regional Military Administration press service says.

• On October 12, 2022, mayor of Enerhodar, Dmytro Orlov, said that the Russian military took Ukrainian children from the temporarily occupied town to the territory of Crimea.
