Underground schools of Kherson

In April 2024, it became known that an underground school for 500 students would be built in Kherson.

In November, it was reported that instead of the planned four underground schools, only two would be built in the city. This decision was made because the townspeople began to protest against the construction, fearing artillery shelling.

After that, Bihus.Info journalists found out that the contractors of these projects have connections with government officials.
