6. Ukraine
How many children are in orphanages in Ukraine is a mystery. The official data says there are 82,000 orphans who are institutionalized, but the activists claim the real figure is close to 200,000 (!). Reading about the abuse cases is sickening. The children are easy prey to pedophiles and sex trafficking. A girl who fled the institution claims every year a dozen of children were disappearing into the woods. Most probably they were bought and sold into modern slavery. A grandma was encouraged to sell her grandchild for organs. That should give you a clear picture of the situation in Ukraine.
