Quote: "The 5- and 12-year old sisters have been separated from their parents since the first day of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. All the time they stayed with their grandmother, who refused to hand the children over to their mother, who had returned from captivity."

Details: Lubinets has said that he was approached by the girls' mother, and his office worked out a mechanism for bringing back the children with the Russian side. "Fortunately, everything worked out. The family is now reunited," Lubinets posted.
