Children of Ukraine Get Education Risking Their Lives

September 6, Tuesday, school day. Russians shot the city gymnasium

On September 1, the academic year began in Ukraine. Many children went to school online, some sat down at their desks, and some children went to school in other countries as refugees. And many children remained in the territories temporarily controlled by terrorists, where going to school is deadly. This is not an exaggeration because even on a weekday, the Russians shoot missiles at schools.

Donetsk region, the city of Kurakhovo. On September 6, the Russians launched rockets against the city gymnasium No 2. Fortunately, there were no children at the school at the time of the shooting. In addition to the school premises, the Russians destroyed nearby residential buildings with people. The number of victims is still unknown.

According to the head of the regional military administration Pavlo Kirilenko, the Kurakhovska gymnasium became the 274th school in the Donetsk region, which was destroyed by the Russians. 29 of them are destroyed to the ground and cannot be restored. In just 195 days of the Russian invasion, the invaders destroyed 615 educational institutions in the Donetsk region (schools, universities, colleges, kindergartens, etc.)

Almost 400 children will never go to school and graduate from university because the Russians killed them.
