Journalists from Skhemy (Schemes), the investigative arm of Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty’s Ukrainian Service, have gained access to a leak of exclusive documents from Russian occupation administrations. The materials were provided by the Ukrainian hacker group KibOrg.

These documents reveal how Russia’s “Yunarmiya” (lit. “Young Army”) integrates militaristic ideology into occupied areas of Ukraine through schools, summer camps, and “patriotic” events, resulting in young Ukrainians becoming part of Russia's military apparatus and, in some cases, joining the Russian army.
