In the temporarily occupied territory of Luhansk region, the occupation administration strictly controls the creation and staffing of “Cossack” groups in kindergartens.

This was reported on Telegram by the head of the Luhansk Regional State Administration, Oleksii Kharchenko, according to Ukrinform.

“The so-called ‘Ministry of Education and Science of the LPR’ controls the opening of Cossack groups in preschool educational institutions. As part of the program, children in kindergartens are taught the traditions of modern Russian Cossacks every day,” Kharchenko wrote.

According to him, the occupying authorities are checking the enrollment of each of the “thematic” groups. Where there are not enough children, they are forced to announce additional enrollment. In particular, this is happening in Stanitsa Luhanska.

As reported by Ukrinform, the occupiers are taking teachers from the temporarily occupied territories to Russia for ideological training.
