Occupants Recruit Students in Occupied Territories: How the New Mobilization Scheme Works

Russia is strengthening its military presence in the occupied territories of Ukraine, seizing all spheres of life - from education to local governance. This indicates an attempt to compensate for the shortage of military personnel for conducting combat actions against Ukraine. This information was disseminated by the Center for National Resistance.

'Lessons of Courage' have been conducted in a local agricultural university in the Russian-controlled territory of Kherson, which is just one of the public actions. The preparation of young people for military service is justified by the need to support military operations.

Moreover, in kindergartens in the occupied territories, children are taught the Russian language and attempts are made to destroy any traces of their own Ukrainian identity. The Russian government vividly demonstrates its colonial strategy in the occupied territories.

Ukrainian experts emphasize the threat posed by these actions from Russia to the national and cultural security of Ukraine and stress the need for international response to the situation.
