The Search for Ukraine’s Missing Children

Since Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine began, thousands of Ukrainian children have been taken and held in Russian-controlled territory.  A new documentary from FRONTLINE, Children of Ukraine, examines the fate of some of these young Ukrainians, following families and investigators as they search for missing children and collect evidence of alleged abductions.  Director Paul Kenyon joined The FRONTLINE Dispatch to talk about dueling Ukrainian and Russian narratives about what’s happened to the children, interviewing young survivors of war and trauma, and ongoing efforts to reunite Ukrainian families.  You can watch Children of Ukraine on FRONTLINE’s website, FRONTLINE’s YouTube channel and the PBS App.  Want to be notified every time a new podcast episode drops?
