This was reported by the Russian portal Mediazone

The Russian Education Ministry has approved "federal educational programmes" for elementary, basic and secondary general education for schools

According to the publication, the programme envisions that high school students will study such topics as "the 2014 coup d'etat" in Ukraine, "the reunification of Crimea and Sevastopol with Russia", "humanitarian support for the Donetsk and Luhansk people's republics", and "the special military operation" and the ensuing "sanctions of the USA and its allies" as part of the Russian history course.

The basic military training module for grades 10-11 will include rules of engagement for the AK-74 Kalashnikov assault rifle, the principles of operation of the F-1 and RGD-5 hand grenades and first aid in combat.

In addition, students will be taught about countering extremism and terrorism, they will be taught about destructive youth subcultures and extremist associations, right-wing radical groups of a Nazi orientation and left-wing radical communities. Students will also learn "the dangers of modern entertainment for young people"

Already this year, Russian pupils have been singing the anthem and raising the flag. And their first lesson at the beginning of the school year was a class hour, during which pupils were told about the war in Ukraine. In many regions, pupils were required to write letters and postcards to the Russian soldiers at the front.
