The Ukrainian students returned to classes in a context marked by Russian attacks, with reports that children are being transformed into participants of this war. The beginning of the school year in Ukraine is taking place under adverse and dangerous conditions.
Russia attacked civilian, energy, and port infrastructure in the city of Odessa during the early morning of Tuesday. These attacks caused significant damage to the port city's infrastructure.
The Russian offensive against Odessa happened during the same period as the return to schools in Ukraine, creating an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty among the school population and their families.
The transformation of children into participants of the war reflects the deep consequences of the conflict on the daily life of the Ukrainian population, especially regarding access to education and basic security.
