Ukraine children losing out on education: UN

GENEVA: Years of disrupted schooling have left Ukrainian children struggling to learn language, maths and reading skills in the wake of the pandemic and Russia invasion, the United Nations warned Tuesday.
Youngsters within the country and refugees forced to flee abroad are now facing a fourth straight year of disruption, the UN children agency, UNICEF, said, as the school year begins in Ukraine.
Continued attacks on education inside Ukraine and low-level enrollment in refugee-hosting countries have left many of Ukraine 6.7 million three-to-18-year-olds struggling to learn, said Regina De Dominicis, UNICEF regional director for Europe and central Asia.
