School year begins in Ukraine amid Russian attacks

The first day of school in Ukraine begins amid ongoing Russian attacks, as schools face significant damage and disruption. On the night before the start of the academic year, a Russian rocket struck School No. 20 in Kyiv, destroying parts of the campus including the gymnasium and cafeteria. Teachers like Natalia Rewenko, who was set to teach first graders, had to clean up debris and conduct lessons online. Over 4,000 schools across Ukraine have been damaged or destroyed by Russian strikes. Parents, such as Anastasija, visit the site to assess the damage, expressing anger at the targeted attacks on cultural and educational institutions. Reports suggest Russia is deliberately targeting education infrastructure, with hundreds of thousands of textbooks burned. Nearby school director Roman Feschtschuk notes community efforts to rebuild, having previously helped repair his own school after an attack in May. Despite some progress, students continue to face frequent air alarms and disrupted learning environments.
