A lesson you don’t want to miss: drone piloting and tactical training for high school students (Photo gallery)

In the Mykolaiv region, Bereznehuvate’s “Defense of Ukraine” class is the only one not held remotely. After enduring remote learning due to the pandemic and the devastating impact of the full-scale invasion, which included five Russian missile strikes on their school, students are now training in the very yard of their damaged lyceum.

Fourteen centers for national and patriotic education, staffed by veterans of the Russian-Ukrainian war, have sprung up in Lviv over the past two years. These centers offer high school students an integrated course called “Defense of Ukraine,” in which children learn the basics of military training.
