Ukrainian Refugees Moved From Dublin To Kildare After Child Separation Scare

The Department of Integration has since clarified that it was "an administrative error and will be corrected".

An "administrative" error caused upset for a Ukrainian family after it implied they would be split up.

A letter told the parents that they would be moved to an equestrian centre in Kildare while their two children, aged eleven and five, would be moved to Swords.

Inna Matvey and her husband said they did not understand what was going on.

The Department of Integration has since clarified that it was "an administrative error and will be corrected".

The majority of 200 Ukrainian refugees will be moved from student accommodation in the capital to the equestrian centre in Kildare.

Residents are expected to be moved from today.
