Russian invasion has lowered Ukrainian students' performance in PISA by 23 points in reading and 9 points in science.

Most likely mechanism : psychological stress.

There is strong impact of air-raids if they happen on the night before the national exam, but negligible impact in the long-term.

Geopolitical experiments paid by blood of Ukrainian Nation.
