  • Melania Trump, U.S. First Lady, said she opened a direct line with Vladimir Putin, confirming several children reunited and offering humanitarian support, with more reunifications anticipated.
  • Ukraine's Foreign Ministry said only 1,850 children have been returned so far, while Kyiv accuses Moscow of deporting more than 19,000 since the invasion, a claim Russia denies.
  • Kremlin children's rights commissioner Maria Lvova-Belova confirmed the return, thanked the first lady, and said bridge-building cooperation will continue to drive the process toward broader regional stability.
