В Гомельской области подростков учат стрелять из лопат
The publication Flagshtok reports that students of the 10th grade from Gomel region are sharing photos from the training meetings in their social networks. This time, unlike in previous years, there were practical activities, where students were taught to dig trenches and shoot with shovels.
It’s funny that the websites of the Simanitskaya school (Lelchytsy district) and Damanavichy school (Kalinkavichy district) called the training as «military field camps.» In Damanavichy school, all activities were limited to the territory of the school itself, and the students of Lelchytsy district practiced a staged shooting in the trenches in the forest.
In recent years, patriotism and militarism have been actively promoted among students in schools. Commanders of military-patriotic education appeared at high schools, and after the 10th grade there are compulsory training field camps.
