Ukraine: Growing Up Under Fire
For millions of children in Ukraine, life has been transformed by Russia's invasion. Three young people tell their stories of coping with the physical and mental strains of war.
Some 2,000 children have been injured or killed since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, and this year the number has surged.
