As part of the "Holidays without Smoke and Fire" campaign, activists from the youth public organization of rescuer-firefighters from Podsvil school, together with an EMERCOM inspector, went to Lake Mushkat in the town of Glubokoye.

Employees of the district water rescue society warmly welcomed the young helpers at their rescue station, where they conducted an briefing with the children, showed all their equipment, and took them for a boat ride on the local lake.

To ensure that the recreation does not end in tragedy, the young rescuers told all vacationers by the lakes about the rules of behavior on the water, explained how to act in case of an unforeseen situation – in particular, the algorithm of actions when rescuing a drowning person and the rules for providing first aid to the victim. The rescuers once again reminded what consequences the non-observance of elementary safety rules can lead to.

EMERCOM reminds! According to OSVOD, a huge number of people, including children, die annually on reservoirs in Belarus. Observe water safety rules. Do not allow children to spend time alone at the reservoir!
