Details: Among those rescued are 9-year-old Bohdan and 14-year-old Artem, who lived with their mother and grandfather under constant pressure from the occupation authorities. According to the organisers of the evacuation, the family was persecuted because some of their relatives serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
