    Those poor kids and adults. My son was disabled and passed away 5 years ago at home. This just breaks my heart beyond measure. They are human beings just like everyone else. I can’t believe how inhumane this is. I understand during the war people had to flee. But why can’t someone come in and save these individuals. 😞😞

      I'm going to be honest I'm a C6 Aisa B quadriplegic injured when I was 20 I'd rather be 6ft under than be any of those kids. I wouldn't be here today if I didn't have siblings who are 2,3,5 and 13yrs younger than me I had to take care of. Innocent children who have lives like this is the reason why I don't believe in any religion.

    The sad thing is that those kids were in same situation before the war. Those kids are just put away. There are no “excursions” or “entertainment” for those kids.

    I get these were sick and handicap kids, but for a parent to leave them completely is inhumane.
    Nevertheless this is a small number of kids in a 45 million population, and there are terrible and cruel people and parents in all countries in this beautiful world 🗺

    Putin and Zelensky should agree to a personal duel and save thousands of innocent soldier's lives. Just put both leaders in a gun duel; like in the Old West, or put both of them in the UFC ring cage (without a referee).

    I see mostly mercury poisoning, low folate, low iodine, rickets and fetal alcohol syndrome along with a few genetic/congenital disorders.
    But a LOT of these sweethearts are victims of prenatal malnourishment or chemical poisoning. Likely due to their parents living in total poverty- poorly treated water supply, drug abuse, contaminated foods from heavy metals.

      No. Ukraine has hurt their own, and they think cruelly of the disabled. You can watch many documentaries on UA-cam. This has happened for years. Way before war. They believe these childrens are cursed by nature and that’s their fate. If that isn’t sick I don’t know what is.

    NATO needs to intercede in this illegal operation. Is it against NATO's rules to intercede because Ukraine is not a member of NATO? NO PROBLEM. Russia has broken every rule of war and humanity. NATO can change their rules to make Ukraine a member TODAY. All Ukraine needs is air support and some ammo to go on the offensive. STOP Russia's shelling, bombing, and air operations. Ukraine cannot compete with those. Laws are created to maintain the GOOD not prevent it.

    Meanwhile in the real world Ukraine is losing the war. There are mass surrender and desertion. The most important thing is that Ukrainian professional army including elite Nazi units like Azov regiment suffered unsustainable losses and you can't do much with conscripts (most of them are really unwilling to fight for the regime). Just yesterday 32 Ukrainian soldiers were shot dead by Ukrainian Nazi unit while crossing the frontline trying to surrender. According to Guardian “…more than 20,000 casualties a month raises questions about what state Ukraine’s army will be in if the conflict drags on into the autumn. Ukraine is losing 2 to 3 brigade's a month at this rate. That's unsustainable.” Western supplies are a drop in the bucket taking into account the amount of already lost hardware. Without direct intervention of Polish or Romanian armies Ukrainian army will be done by the end of the year. 40+ billion in American weapons without even minimal oversight is mostly about corruption and kickbacks as usual. I suppose Ukraine is the second largest buyer of Hunter's art after China.
