By Greta Uehling, teaching professor at the University of Michigan in the U.S., who studies war and migration. Her major projects have examined the experiences of refugees, asylum-seekers, and the internally displaced.

The estimated number of children sent unlawfully from Ukraine to Russia since the full-scale invasion varies widely, from 20,000 to 750,000. Child removal is a way for Russia to claim the Ukrainian children it has not killed with missile or drone strikes. Through a vast network of shelters and camps, Russians and their supporters provide kids with Russian identity documents, indoctrinate them into pro-Russian beliefs, and, in many cases, send them to foster and adoptive families.

Through this insidious method of genocide, Russia is furthering its goal of annihilating modern Ukraine. One child at a time.
