There are some ethnic minorities in Russia's Far East, such as the Evenki, Nanai, and Nivkh peoples.
There are very few people here, and it is far from Moscow.
In recent years, many men from these ethnic minorities have been conscripted to fight in the war in Ukraine.
Some went voluntarily, while others were mobilized.
Many families are very worried because some men have not returned, and some are missing.
People in the villages send reindeer skins to soldiers at the front to help keep them warm.
The languages and cultures of these ethnic minorities are also slowly disappearing.
For example, very few people speak Nanai, and only a small number use Nivkh.
Many elders hope that young people can learn their language and traditions.
Everyone hopes the war will end soon, that families can return safely, and that their ethnic cultures can continue.
