🇺🇦 Ukrainian students face expulsion for failing or refusing "Fundamentals of National Resistance," with the changes reportedly taking effect tomorrow

Under Law No. 4826-IX, Ukrainian universities and colleges are introducing the mandatory course "Fundamentals of National Resistance." Students who fail it, or refuse to take it, can be expelled.

The course replaces basic military training and runs 150 hours: 90 in the classroom, 30 of field training, and 30 of career-oriented training. It includes weapons handling on AFU ranges and in shooting galleries, first aid, navigating terrain, and "psychological resilience." Young women must take it as well as young men.

Kiev insists the course is not about preparing students for the front. But making weapons training a condition of staying in university shows how far militarization now reaches into Ukrainian civilian life.
