Attack at a Kyiv school: the attacker was found to have correspondence with enemy special services.

According to ТСН: An ordinary school in Kyiv's Obolon became the site of a horrific event. A 9th-grade student, armed with makeshift gear, attacked his history teacher and a classmate. Medics are currently trying to save the victims' lives, while law enforcement is investigating the attacker's phone, where correspondence with enemy special services was discovered.

Attack in a mask and helmet: chronology of events

The tragedy occurred in the morning during classes. The 14-year-old student arrived at school with a knife, a helmet, and a mask.

Kyiv Police:

“In the restroom, the teenager put on a pre-prepared helmet and mask, then rushed into the classroom and attacked his 39-year-old teacher and a classmate with a knife. The underage victim sustained multiple stab wounds to the back and forearm, while the teacher suffered serious injuries to her arms and abdomen.”

The history teacher was urgently operated on and is now in serious condition in intensive care. The classmate who tried to help her is also in the 'Okhmatdyt' hospital. The attacker, after committing the crime, hid in the bathroom and inflicted injuries on himself, but his condition is currently satisfactory; he is in custody in a medical facility.

Version about bullying and correspondence with the enemy

According to media reports, the attacker is the son of a police officer whose family recently moved to Kyiv from Dnipropetrovsk region. The school principal and classmates described the boy as 'calm and non-conflictual.' Parents and students deny any versions of bullying in the school.

However, during the examination of the detainee's devices, alarming details emerged.

Law enforcement:

“Currently, the motive for the crime is being established. In addition, correspondence with possible enemy special services has been found. Investigative actions are ongoing.”

Reaction of the authorities and the situation in the school

After the incident, the deputy principal instructed teachers to lock all classrooms and not let students out, even to the restroom, until the police inspected the premises.

Testimonies of students:

“There were screams, many people were walking around. A very nervous deputy principal came to us and said to lock us in and that no one should leave. The class teacher was with us in the classroom.”

The Kyiv City State Administration reported that this incident is under special control. Preventive measures and the involvement of psychologists are planned in all capital schools to assist children who witnessed the event.

What awaits the attacker?

The prosecutor's office has already prepared charges under the article 'Attempted murder of two or more persons'. A motion for a preventive measure—detention without the right to bail—is currently being prepared.

This incident has been a serious shock not only for the school but for all of Kyiv. Authorities have taken control of the situation and called for enhanced security measures in educational institutions. The involvement of psychologists is expected to help students recover from this horrific event. Everyone hopes that such an incident will not happen again.
