War Crimes investigators have launched a “genocide” case against Russia over fears that more than 200,000 children have been forcibly deported over the border.
Legal experts say “forcibly transferring children” may be genocide as it plays a part in trying to destroy a national, ethnic, racial or religious group.
Ukraine ’s prosecutor general Iryna Venediktova said: “From the first days of the war, we started this case about genocide. That’s why this forcible transfer of children is very important.”
