Freed from captivity: why Ukrainians are less often considered missing.

According to inkorr.com: The Coordination Headquarters reported positive changes among Ukrainians freed from Russian captivity. The number of individuals who were previously considered missing is decreasing, which indicates an improvement in the reliability of information regarding the freed.

“Less than one percent of those returning were considered missing. These are almost isolated cases,” explained Petro Yatsenko.

Vulnerability of military relatives

Psychologist Olena Sek noted that the relatives of servicemen who ended up in captivity are in a very vulnerable situation. Russian special services may use them for various manipulations and frauds, promising the return of captives in exchange for information or ransom.

The need for attention and protection

This situation highlights the importance of special protection for the families of prisoners of war, as they may become victims of fraudsters and Russian special services who exploit their suffering.

Thus, it is crucial to provide informational support and protection for relatives to shield them from manipulations and assist them in difficult conditions. The community and state bodies must join efforts to support this vulnerable category of citizens in this challenging time.
