AGAINST ILLEGAL DEPORTATION 

OF UKRAINIANS

Russia does not appear to reap any economic benefits from resettling tens of thousands of unwilling Ukrainians in Russia, suggesting that the purpose of such removals is both to damage Ukraine’s long-term economic recovery as it retakes its territory and, more importantly, to support Russia’s ethnic cleansing campaign, which is attempting to eradicate the Ukrainianethnicity and culture.

“I'm seeing new reports about Russian forced transfers of people from #Kherson in occupied #Ukraine. Under international law, the forced transfer of the populationfrom occupied areas is a war crime. The 4th Geneva Convention prohibits an occupying power from forcibly transferring or displacing the population.”

European Media Director of the Human Rights Watch. ANDREW STROEHLEIN

“Russian authorities are deliberately separating Ukrainian children from their parents and abducting others from orphanages before putting them up for adoption inside Russia. Eyewitnesses and survivors of “filtration” operations, detentions, and forced deportations report frequent threats, harassment, and incidents of torture by Russian security forces.”

“Ukrainian people are not being evacuated from Kherson to Russia. They are being deported from #Kherson to Russia.”
