Disabled children “abandoned” in Ukrainian institutions – BBC News

There is evidence that thousands of disabled Ukrainian children have been forgotten and abandoned in institutions that can’t look after them.

The human rights organisation, Disability Rights International, has carried out an investigation and found children with severe disabilities tied to beds in overrun children’s homes unable to cope.

The BBC has been given exclusive access to an institution in western Ukraine, where disabled children from the east have been left by their carers who fled to neighbouring countries.

Huw Edwards presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Dan Johnson in Ukraine.
