Russia is relocating Ukrainian children to Belarus where they are subjected to military training and reeducation, report finds

• Since the war began, thousands of Ukrainian children have been removed from their families.
• A new study found over 2,000 of these children are now in Belarus.
• In Belarus, some children have been re-educated by nationalists and given military training.

A recent report from Yale University sheds new light on the plight of Ukrainian children who have been deported by Russia, many of whom the report says are being subjected to military training and reeducation.

The Yale School of Public Health's Humanitarian Research Lab, which studied the deportation of thousands of Ukrainian children, found that the Russian and Belarusian governments have worked in tandem to organize such deportations. The report relied primarily on open-source research and some high-resolution satellite imagery.
