Irpin Lyceum No. 3, rebuilt at the expense of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and other sponsors after extensive damage caused by Russian shelling, was reopened in the war-battered Kyiv region.
What is the problem?
During the occupation of Irpin, Russian occupiers damaged 10,500 buildings, of which 2,501 were completely or severely destroyed, which is 48% of the total housing stock of Irpin.
Almost all schools in Irpin were destroyed during the Russian army's offensive. Lyceum No. 3 was the largest educational institution in Irpin.
The facility suffered the greatest destruction among all educational institutions in the city, suffering 75% of the damage.
What is the solution?
UNICEF funds helped to restore Lyceum No. 3, which was opened in the city of Irpin, Kyiv region.
