In Kherson, 58 pupils of a children's home have been hiding in the basement of a local church for more than a month.

10 out of these are children aged from 4 months to 1 year. The rest are under 4 years, including children with disabilities who need special care and treatment.

This was announced by the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Lyudmila Denisova, according to TSN.

"We have found a safe place for these children to stay in a region of Ukraine where there are no active military operations. There, pupils of the orphanage will be provided with all the necessary assistance, treatment and care," the Ombudsman said.

Denisova called on all those who can assist in transporting these children not to stand aside and take all possible measures to open and operate the humanitarian corridor.
