Another school conflict over the hijab - now in Chelyabinsk
On October 20, 2022, it became known about another conflict around attending school in a hijab. Since the beginning of the school year, the director of Chelyabinsk secondary school No. 71, Elena Ozhiganova, and other teachers have not allowed tenth-grader Viktoria Ashurova to attend classes because she wears a headscarf. Her younger sister, a first-grader, refused to wear a headscarf as a result of pressure from teachers, but Victoria does not want to follow her example.
