Ukraine says 1.4m citizens deported to Russia
Russia has forcibly taken 1.4 million Ukrainians to its territory, Kyiv's ombudsman for human rights Lyudmyla Denisova has said, according to the Interfax news agency, Qazet.az reports.
There was "convincing evidence" that Russia had prepared these deportations in advance, and that it expected to remove over two million Ukrainians, she added.
