Drone threat triggers sirens in Sochi and Sirius

Sirens wailed in Sochi and Sirius. The head of the Federal Territory, Dmitry Plishkin, warned of a UAV attack threat.

«All forces and means are ready to repel it. I ask you to remain calm, move away from windows, and take shelter in a safe place,» Plishkin wrote in his Telegram channel.

Later, a message about the threat of an unmanned aerial vehicle attack appeared in the Telegram channel of Sochi head Andrey Proshunin.

«If you are at home: do not approach windows, take shelter in a room whose windows do not face the sea or in a windowless room (corridor, bathroom, toilet, pantry). If you are outside: take shelter in the ground floor of the nearest building, use basements, ground floors, tunnels, underground passages, and parking lots for shelter,» the message says.

It is dangerous to use a car as shelter or to hide near the walls of apartment buildings.

If you witness what is happening, refrain from filming and posting on social media: the work of air defense, UAVs and their debris, the work of special and operational services, means of protecting attack targets.

«Remain calm! Wait for the signal to be canceled as soon as the situation in Sochi becomes safe! The emergency services phone number is 112,» is noted in Proshunin«s Telegram channel.
