Specialists of the SI “Derzhgruntokhorona” completed a course on the basics of civil protection

In connection with the full-scale military aggression of Russia against Ukraine, the Department of Municipal Security of the KCGA expanded the program of preparing the population for national resistance and developed training for all categories of the capital’s civilian population.

In order to increase the defense capability, to help ensure the readiness of Ukrainian citizens for national resistance, specialists of the state institution “Institute of Soil Protection of Ukraine” completed a two-day training course from the United Training Center for training units of Territorial Defense and Municipal Security.

Training is organized according to NATO standards and conducted by professional instructors with combat experience.

Specialists of the “State Soil Protection” State University have mastered basic general military knowledge, practical skills and abilities. In particular, they mastered the algorithm of actions when providing first aid during military operations:

– inspection of the scene (detection of dangerous factors that threaten life);

– initial examination of the victim, detection of signs of life;

– stable position of the victim who lost consciousness;

– secondary examination of the victim (detection of fractures, bruises, dislocations);

– types of bleeding, stopping bleeding, applying bandages and bandaging;

– pneumothorax;

– injuries.

Also, specialists of the SI “Derzhgruntokhorona” attended a course on mine safety and safety rules for handling firearms.

Basic actions when explosive objects are detected:

– stop and don’t touch anything. Keep calm. Remember the location of the item;

– warn people nearby about the discovered object;

– move as far as possible from the found object. You must leave by the same route you came;

– report the discovery of a suspicious object to law enforcement agencies and special services by calling 101 or 102.

Four basic rules of safety when handling firearms:

1. Always handle the weapon as if it were loaded.
2. Never aim your weapon unless you intend to fire.
3. Do not keep your finger on the trigger unnecessarily. The finger is placed on the trigger only after you have made the decision to fire and are in position to fire. After shooting, the finger is removed from the hook.
4. Make sure there are no people or objects between you and your target.

Remember! In any situation, always keep calm and avoid panic.

Everything will be Ukraine!
