Russia-installed occupation authorities in Ukraine’s Luhansk region created an online “catalogue” of Ukrainian children, offering them for coerced “adoption” through the education department.
The database includes 294 Ukrainian children, who are sorted and categorised so that the users can “filter” them by age, gender and physical traits, like eyes and hair colour.
The children are advertised for their character traits, with some described as "obedient" or "calm".
In numerous cases, the children are described as “polite and respectful towards the adults”, “disciplined” and “not conflictive” or “can be relied on to execute tasks”.
This sounds horrible. There’s an inventory (catalog) of children. Goods/products are inventoried, not people.
- It does sound horrible but it gives me hope. I hope that one day we can hold them accountable for what they’ve done and reunite these children with their Ukrainian families.
  The Nazis were pretty detailed about documenting their many crimes in the Holocaust. This documentation was a tremendous boon to the investigations and prosecutions of Nazi war criminals.
- As everyone else has pointed out, this is effectively just a slave market. Russia is just too chickenshit (along with a good chunk of the rest of the world) to say what it is out loud.*
- Humanity just can't help but to repeat it's atrocities while the world just watches.
Uhhhh
...what
Take note, young Russians, and get genetic tests, as your (Russian) parents might not actually be your parents.
Fascist !
its horrible but with what face can we criticise them while we are funding israel to bomb starving kids collecting water. idf and the settlers likely murder any orphans they find and bury them under miles of rubble
compare to what our govt supports, russia seems to be mother teresa reborn.
- your beloved russia is doing a genocide again. you can stick your head in the sand and go into denial about it, but it won't change the facts. russia invaded Ukraine unprovoked in an imperial campaign of military expansion. these are the facts, this is the reality
- So what's the real story
