Members of the working group found out where the children are kept in different cities of Russia, what is their health condition, and collected the necessary documents.

During the trip, each of the children received was medically examined by the medical staff and brought back to homeland. The Embassy of Uzbekistan in Russia helped in the implementation of these works.

The work of finding the relatives of the returned children and handing them over safely has begun.
