Quote: "For almost two weeks we were hiding these little children in bomb shelters.

People who could shelter them in a safe place in another country were quickly found."

"These are children who do not have parents (for various reasons) and most of them need constant medical help."

Details: At the earliest opportunity, 71 children who were without parental care were evacuated from a specialised orphanage in the combat zone in the city of Sumy.

The children were evacuated abroad.
