Before Putin’s war of aggression: school in Russia lets children make grenade parts

class=”sc-cffd1e67-0 fmXrkB”>

According to media reports, students at a school in the Russian Republic of Tatarstan are making artillery shell parts for Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine as part of a working group. “What at first glance looks like a child’s toy performs a very important function… the stabilizers help the grenade fly directly to the target without falling over in the air,” the local television correspondent reported on the lesson. The independent ‘Moscow Times’ also reported nationally about the case on Thursday.

In addition, tourniquets to tie heavily bleeding wounds and containers for pain-relieving ampoules are also produced at the school, the report said. The templates are produced in a 3D printer at the local children’s recreation center in the small town of Mamadysh, 170 kilometers east of the megacity Kazan. “All these products are especially needed in the field of military special operations,” the reporter praises child labor for the front.

Propaganda in history books

In Russia, the war of aggression against Ukraine, which Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin (71) ordered more than 21 months ago, is called a “special military operation”. At that time, teaching in most Russian schools was already undergoing major changes.

Military studies were again increasingly included in the curriculum, and there is also a lesson subject called ‘Conversations about what is important’, where teachers have to give the children insight into the political direction of the Kremlin. The subject of history has been specifically expanded to include the chapter on the war in Ukraine. Students there learn about the alleged necessity of the Russian attack. (SDA)
