School principal in Yalta taught Ukrainian children according to the occupiers' standards

The Prosecutor's Office of the Autonomy, together with investigators of the Main Directorate of the Security Service of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, detained and served a notice of suspicion to a resident of Yalta who was engaged in the implementation of educational standards of the enemy in educational institutions of the occupied peninsula.

This was reported by the Prosecutor's Office of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and Sevastopol.

According to the investigation, since 2014, a citizen of Ukraine with pedagogical experience has organized the educational process in the general education institutions of the occupied Crimea in accordance with the requirements of the Russian Federation. Later, in 2023, the woman voluntarily headed one of the secondary schools in Yalta created by the occupiers.

The 'director' personally approved the curriculum with documents in accordance with Russian standards. In particular, she actively involved students in propaganda events dedicated to the 'exploits of the defenders of the fatherland' and the 11th anniversary of the illegal 'all-Crimean referendum'. During the full-scale invasion, at the end of December 2025, the woman arrived in the territory controlled by Ukraine to visit relatives, but was exposed by law enforcement officers and notified of suspicion of collaboration (Part 3 of Article 111-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

As a result of the search, law enforcement officers found a foreign and domestic passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation, equipment, communication devices, etc. At the request of the Prosecutor's Office of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and Sevastopol, she was chosen as a measure of restraint in the form of detention for a period of 2 months without the possibility of bail. Operational support of the pre-trial investigation is provided by the SBU CI Department.
