Details: It is known that most of the victims are in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Donetsk, Sumy, Kherson and Zhytomyr regions. This figure is not final, due to the lack of opportunity to inspect the sites of attacks, where the Russian armed forces are conducting active hostilities.
So far, more than 280 educational institutions have been severely damaged - 9 of them completely destroyed. In the Donetsk region, 110 educational institutions were damaged; in the Sumy region - 28, in Kyiv - 17 and more than 10 children's medical institutions.
On average, 17 educational institutions have been destroyed daily by the occupier during the war. As a result, 7 million children are deprived of the opportunity to study due to active hostilities on the territory of Ukraine and the deliberate destruction of such institutions.
