The Cyber Police urgently called on parents: A new dangerous challenge endangers children.


The Ukrainian TikTok segments are facing a dangerous trend that threatens children. According to the National Police of Ukraine, children are making homemade fireworks and putting themselves in serious danger.
'The consequences of such 'experiments' are catastrophic: from chemical burns to deep scars on the face and hands. In some cases, children require long-term treatment,' the agency stated.
Medical experts emphasize that such injuries can have irreversible effects for a lifetime. For this reason, the police urge both children and their parents not to be misled by provocative challenges for popularity on social media.
The law enforcement agencies emphasize the importance of open dialogue between parents and children about the dangers posed by such 'experiments.' Parents are advised to carefully monitor the content their children watch and to explain that no popularity on social media justifies the risk to health.
The National Police urged children to categorically refuse to participate in dangerous challenges and to inform adults immediately about such incidents. 'If you witness the spread of dangerous challenges or learn about injury cases involving children, we request you to contact the police immediately at the number 102,' the law enforcement agencies emphasize.
Previously, Ukrainians were warned about a new scam scheme involving Telegram.
