Quote: "The invaders are intensifying the forced cultivation of aggressive Russian ideology in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. Particular attention is paid to young people.

In particular, a major propaganda campaign has been launched to voluntarily send schoolchildren from the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories to specially equipped camps in the temporarily occupied Crimea."

Details: Maliar states these camps provide for children to live in "spartan conditions and conduct intensive activities of the so-called 'military-patriotic education' with them under the guidance of military personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation".

The Russians threaten parents who refuse to send their children to such camps with the fact that soon all schoolchildren will be sent to Crimea under duress, as Maliar said.
