Ukraine building system of returning, reintegrating, protecting children #abducted by #Russia

Since #RussiaInvadedUkraine, one of its most disturbing #crimes targeted #Ukraine’s #children

Under #occupation, Russia forced transfer of thousands of #UkrainianChildren. They face #illegal #adoption, involuntary Russian citizenship, aggressive assimilation designed to sever their ties to Ukraine.

It's not a humanitarian crisis; it is a #WarCrime

The Kyiv Independent · How Ukraine is building a system of returning, reintegrating, and protecting children abducted by RussiaBy Iryna Tuliakova

theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/a. This is being quite deliberately stirred up by the likes of #Farage, & is based on a false #narrative - namely, that #illegal #migration exceeds #legal migration, & that #migrants, legal & illegal, deprive "native" inhabitants of #employment, higher #wages, #housing, #healthcare, #education, etc., & are responsible for a high proportion of #crime - a #perception of crime which the far right, abetted by the #media, exaggerates out of all proportion to its #reality.

The Guardian · Police in England brace for disorder as far right promote anti-migrant protestsBy Ben Quinn

theguardian.com/commentisfree/. "According to new #YouGov polling, nearly half of Britons wrongly believe that #illegal #migrants now outnumber those here legally. A staggering 72% of those who support mass deportations hold this belief - even though official estimates show #legal #migration outnumbers irregular migration by at least 10 to 1."

"While the European states have announced they may recognise a Palestinian state, in a cynical effort to placate mounting popular revulsion over the Gaza genocide, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s fascist government has already ensured the impossibility of establishing such a state"
And he wants a "Greater Israel" which is a pretty big territory, like half of West Asia. He wants the lot.

World Socialist Web SiteIsrael’s annexation of the West Bank is almost completeNone of this could have gone ahead without the complicity of Abbas and the Palestinian National Authority.

Heute von Kufstein (AT) nach Kiefersfelden (DE*) mit dem Zug gefahren. Drei Bundespolizist:innen auf dem Bahnsteig in Kufstein warten auf den Railjet. Einer im Regionalzug steckt in Kiefersfelden kurz aus dem Zug, wer so aussteigt.

Es. Ist. So. Eine. Verschwendung. Von. Lebenszeit. Von. Polizist:innen. Um. Die. Bekloppten. Untergangsphantasien. Von. Rechten. Und. Faschos. Zu. Bedienen.

"Macron announced on Thursday that he will recognize a Palestinian state at the upcoming UN General Assembly session in New York in September"
"Washington condemned the announcement"
"Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich warned on 6 June that Tel Aviv has prepared an “escalation plan” in the occupied West Bank if European countries move forward with a push to recognize a Palestinian state" So Israel is the victim, of course
