Russia to introduce nuclear war survival training in schools
Hindustan Times|February 08, 2024
The Russian government is set to introduce nuclear survival training as part of its national curriculum for high school students, a local newspaper reported on Tuesday, citing the ministry of education.

As part of the training, students will learn about "the combat properties and damaging effects of weapons of mass destruction, as well as methods of protection against them", the report in newspaper Kommersant said.

The training will be part of a subject called "Fundamentals of Security and Defence of the Motherland" expected to be rolled out in high schools in Russia from September 1.

Nuclear rhetoric has been prominent since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
