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".

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".
