WATER SAFETY — THE KEY TO SAVING LIVES

With the arrival of the summer season, more and more people spend their free time near rivers, lakes, and other bodies of water. However, failure to follow water safety rules can lead to tragic consequences. Therefore, everyone should strictly observe basic safety precautions.

Swimming should only take place in specially equipped and designated areas.

In the event of an emergency, remain calm and immediately call 112.

Following water safety rules is essential for protecting your own life and the lives of those close to you. Let us be responsible and promote a culture of safe behavior, because caution around water saves lives.
