In educational institutions in occupied Kakhovka and its surroundings, Russian police officers are conducting "lectures" on the topic "We are responsible for our actions." The purpose of such lessons is to identify and intimidate those students who continue to show pro-Ukrainian positions.
Russian so-called juvenile inspectors are now frequent visitors to schools in the temporarily occupied Kherson region.
According to the National Resistance Center, Russian police officers are holding "lectures" on the topic "We are responsible for our actions" in educational institutions in occupied Kakhovka and its surroundings.
"First of all, the purpose of such lessons is to identify and intimidate those students who continue to show pro-Ukrainian positions. Particular attention is paid to the responsibility for disseminating information that, according to the occupiers, discredits the "Russian world" and exposes the crimes of the Kremlin," the statement said.
Earlier, according to the Center, Kremlin terrorists gathered "active" youth from the temporarily occupied Zaporizhzhia to teach them how to identify and resist Ukrainian "extremism." First of all, the children were trained to identify those of their peers who still consider themselves Ukrainians and keep in touch with Ukraine.
Earlier, one hundred schoolchildren from the temporarily occupied Kherson region were sent by the Russians to Tula to participate in the UniversityChanges project. This program included "familiarization" with Russian higher education institutions and advocacy for Ukrainian children to enter these universities. However, the main goal of this initiative was to assimilate Ukrainian youth into the Russian space and replenish the labor force of the Russian Federation.
Prior to that, the occupation authorities of Kherson region forced children to tear up the graves of victims of Nazi mass shootings in 1941-1943 near Genichesk. The invaders called this involvement of schoolchildren in the exhumation of human remains"patriotic education." In addition to children, heavy equipment was also involved in the "search work" that could simply destroy the burial site.
<b>Kateryna Rashevska</b>, a lawyer at the Regional Center for Human Rights, once said that the re-education of Ukrainian teenagers and young people is very well integrated into the policy of the Russian Federation, and it is carried out by bodies of different levels - federal, regional, occupation and even Ukrainian collaborators:
"This is a set of measures aimed at militarizing and politically indoctrinating Ukrainian children through both formal and non-formal education. Both in the occupied territory and in the territory of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus."
