Underground Schools: Sumy Oblast Builds Classrooms Beneath the Earth as Russian Strikes Continue

Russian attacks have damaged 165 schools in Sumy Oblast since the start of the full-scale invasion. In response, local authorities are moving classrooms underground. Thirteen underground schools are already operating in the region. Nine more are under construction, and another 14 are at the design stage. The new facilities are designed to keep education running safely while Russian shelling continues to threaten above-ground buildings.
