In addition, my cousine has 9 children in the family (the one who currently emigrated to Poland with a small child), and she is the eldest daughter. Three of her sisters are now in Kyiv and three more live in Mariupol. So I don’t need to tell about good intentions after one of my sister’s sisters with her children sat in the basement for a week and gave the children water from a puddle. I can’t believe that I am writing this, as it would seem that now is the 21st century ... but I still get goosebumps when you realize that at such moments, neither a good car, nor having an apartment or money plays any role. Now that humanitarian corridors have been launched, the situation is still difficult, since this girl and her two young children were forcibly taken to Russia, and I understand why she agreed. Since there is nothing even to discuss when there is a choice between the life of children and their own freedom.
Earlier I said that our large family is divided, now everything is more or less fine, since we all take care of each other, however, there is still a moral component. The screenshots of the correspondence below are a clear example of how the Russians treat those whom they forcibly took to their territory (I think suchmoon or any trusted member who understands Russian will be able to understand and confirm my words).
In short, one of the first incidents was that the Teachers forced the children to say "Glory to Russia" in front of other children. But just recently, my relatives (one of the sisters and her children) were taken away for interrogation. First, they picked her up and then they took the child from the kindergarten and took her to the police station. She has a Mariupol residence permit but the birthplace of Mykolaev, so they began to ask her about the address of the military units, whether one of her relatives serves in the Ukrainian army (including friends and acquaintances). Then moral harassment began ... including threats that she would go to jail for giving false evidence. Further, it is even more interesting, because the phone was taken from her, all the chats, text messages were read and the numbers of the men were copied.
As a result, she was released ... she began to worry because she ended up with a child in a completely unknown place, and she was only shown in which direction to go.
"In the end, we got lost, I cry, and my child comforts me. We went into some kind of wilderness, there were no people, no houses, no one even to ask where we ended up". Here is such an instructive story about the Russian world and the protection of the Russian-speaking population.
