"In frontline regions, getting to the NMT testing site is a heroic feat where you can die. Something must be done about such matters," said Member of Parliament Yuliia Hryshyna.
The MP stresses that the organization of entrance examinations must take into account the real security conditions on the ground, not ignore the risks that applicants from frontline regions face. Earlier Hryshyna reported on a bill proposing to reduce the number of NMT subjects from four to three and to make mathematics optional.
Sumy region continues to suffer from daily attacks
The security situation in Sumy remains tense these days. Thus, on 3 September at about 15:00 an explosion rang out in the city — as a result of a strike by a Russian drone a private house on the outskirts of Sumy caught fire. At the time of the attack there was no one inside.
The day before, according to the head of the Sumy City Military Administration Serhii Kryvosheienko, several unmanned aerial vehicles of unknown type attacked the industrial zone of the Zariichnyi district of Sumy before and after midnight. One of the drones hit a civilian enterprise, causing a fire that was later contained, and another strike caused a nonresidential building to catch fire. Later in the same district an FPV drone struck fiber-optic cabling on a local company's vehicle — the shock wave damaged three more civilian cars. Preliminary reports say there are no casualties.
