The director of the Department of Education and Science of the Odessa Regional State Administration, Oleksandr Lonchak, said that two months before the new attack on Odessa, the Russians destroyed the largest school in the Odessa Slobidka district. And now the new victim of the Russians was “Nursery-Kindergarten” No. 283. “It is painful to look at the damaged thing that was created by human labor for years.
Just yesterday, children’s noise could be heard in “Nursery-Kindergarten” No. 283 of the Odessa City Council, today 50 pupils lost their second home, an island of childhood. In this situation, the children will be transferred to other kindergartens. The damage is very significant, it cannot be restored quickly. Therefore, operational decisions are being made,” said O. Lonchak.
The Russians also targeted the energy sector. “As a result, 13 kindergartens, 12 schools remain without electricity and heat. The educational process is organized in a distance format, but on condition that the child has the opportunity to connect to online lessons, because part of the city remains without power supply.
All relevant services have been working since night to eliminate the consequences of the suicide attack. The work of regular classes and groups has been organized. Indestructibility Points have been opened. I am grateful to my colleagues for the quick response to the regular challenges in the education system as a result of the war,” the head of the regional education branch continued.
