Border guards involved schoolchildren from various educational institutions in Kyiv in the action. Specialists of the State Border Service conducted a tour for children, showed the weapons and military equipment they use, demonstrated the training of canine handlers with service dogs and an episode of the detention of imaginary intruders. The schoolchildren, in turn, organized sports competitions at the base. The winning team received a prize from the border guards.
As Chairman of the State Border Service of Ukraine Viktor Nazarenko noted during his speech, such actions contribute to the patriotic education of children, so border guards will continue to carry them out in the future.
