MOSCOW, June 20. /ITAR-TASS/. Russian children’s rights ombudsman Pavel Astakhov has announced that the deaths of five children killed in Ukraine’s south-east have been confirmed. He wrote it on his page in the Instagram social network on Friday.

“I believe there are many more,” he said. “All of them are innocent victims of an aggressive, inhuman policy of the Ukrainian authorities. There must be a way out of the current situation.”

Kiev is continuing the military operation in the south-east. The press service of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic said that at least 200 militiamen and civilians were killed in combat actions from April to June.
