Russian occupiers took 34 high school students from the temporarily occupied part of the Kherson region to Russia’s Krasnodar Krai. There they will take part in the so-called military-patriotic program.
According to occupation structures, these are children from the Chaplynka, Hornostaivka, Novotroitske and Hola Prystan communities, who represent the so-called “Cossack societies”.
The teenagers were sent to the “Patriot” center, where for several days they are planned to be taught the basics of basic military training, and also “introduced to the traditions of Russian Cossacks and the history of Kuban”.
Recall, earlier the occupation authorities had already sent teenagers from Kherson region to Volgograd to participate in the program “Pride of the Nation. Path of Development”. There they were also taught military skills, work with drones and the basics of cybersecurity.
Also, according to the Crimean Tatar Resource Center, Russia has significantly strengthened “patriotic education” of children in the occupied territories of Crimea, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions.
