An exhibition dedicated to Ukrainian children in conditions of war opened in Budapest.

In Varoshaza Park, the Regional Office of the UNICEF Program to Support Ukrainian Refugees in Hungary, in cooperation with the Hungarian Reformed Charity Service and the Metropolitan Municipality of Budapest, opened a special exhibition "Flowers and Tanks: Works of Art in the Shadow of the Ongoing War in Ukraine," dedicated to Ukrainian children experiencing the horrors of war in Ukraine, as well as those children who were forced to leave their homes in search of a safe place. This was reported by the Embassy of Ukraine in Hungary.

In less than a month, school will begin across Europe, while a large number of Ukrainian children will be unable to participate in the educational process or attend educational institutions in limited conditions.

In 2024, about 900 thousand children in Ukraine are studying remotely, as they cannot attend school.

According to the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, as of January 2024, the Russian army destroyed or damaged every seventh school in Ukraine: over 200 schools have been destroyed, and more than 1600 schools have been damaged.

The Embassy expresses its gratitude to the organizers of the exhibition for the ongoing support of Ukrainian families affected by the Russian war against Ukraine, and for drawing attention to Russia's crimes against the Ukrainian people.

The exhibition will run until August 21 at Varoshaza Park in Budapest.
