In Winter, Follow Simple Ice Safety Rules!

In winter, be sure to observe basic safety rules when going out onto the ice:

  • The ice thickness must be at least 10–12 cm before stepping onto it;
  • Do not walk on unfamiliar or moving sections of ice;
  • Take a rope, a stick, and rescue equipment with you;
  • Do not leave children unattended;
  • If the ice cracks, stay calm and crawl on your stomach toward the shore;

Remember: caution is the key to saving lives!
