While the war in Ukraine rages, Israel-based international humanitarian aid and disaster relief organization SmartAID has set up online smart classrooms in Moldova, Poland, and other neighboring countries. 1st to 12th graders fleeing the war can continue learning with their classmates and teachers despite being scattered abroad. SmartAID has opened smart classrooms for refugee children in more than 100 schools in Poland and over 30 in Moldova.

More than 700,000 students have crossed the Ukrainian border. Most of these children are traumatized by the effects of war and some have even had to leave their loved ones behind as they defend their country. SmartAID in Israel is providing some stability for those young children suffering from Russia’s attack on their country.
