CCTV shows chilling moment Russian FSB agents and soldiers hunt for Ukrainian orphans
Volodymyr Sahaidak is the director of an orphanage in the village of Stepanivka outside Kherson.He had seen what Russians had done to orphans in the Donbas region since starting a civil war there in 2014."We saw Russian propagandists saying that they need to take the orphans to give them to military schools, indoctrinate them and let them fight for Russia," he said.
Exclusive CCTV footage obtained by Sky News from the orphanage cameras captures the chilling moment Russians arrived to find the children. "They confiscated all the children's files," Volodymyr told Sky News,"because they couldn't figure out where the children were, so they took files, they took computers, they took away the CCTV system because they wanted to know where the children had gone."
The Russians never found the orphans but sent another fifteen children from elsewhere in Ukraine for the orphanage to look after. Sky News has seen videos showing orphanage staff taking them in and treating them as their own.
