Elon Musks largescale cuts to funding in the US government have halted the work of a Yale University team that helped rescue hundreds of Ukrainian children abducted by Russia.
Source Mirror Details Until now, the US government had funded a group of researchers from Yale Universitys Humanitarian Research Lab, who used opensource technologies to track missing children and shared their findings with the Ukrainian authorities to help bring them back home.
Hundreds of children were rescued thanks to their efforts.
But now this work will cease due to the recent federal funding cuts by Elon Musk.
Ukrainian government data says that nearly 20,000 children have been abducted by Russia since the beginning of the fullscale invasion in 2022.
Background In March 2023, the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Russian leader Vladimir Putin and Childrens Right Commissioner Maria LvovaBelova over the deportation of Ukrainian children from the occupied territories of Ukraine to Russia.
