Questionnaires of children forcibly taken from a Kherson orphanage have been found on a Russian state adoption portal, according to Dmytro Lubinets, the Ukrainian parliament commissioner for human rights.
In his Wednesday Telegram update, Lubinets said the questionnaires were discovered by a journalistic investigation.
Lubinets said the data “completely lacks any mention of Ukraine or their true origin,” which he said is an attempt to mask the children’s identity.
“This fact is yet another confirmation of the targeted policy of erasing the Ukrainian identity of our children and an attempt to ‘legalize’ their abduction,” he wrote.
He called it a “systematic practice” since Russia’s 2014 invasion of Ukraine, which consists of “forced displacement or deportation,” then later “document changes, adoption, total re-education, and militarization.”
