Lectures on risks of using pyrotechnic devices
As part of the CIMIC project entitled “Military Pyrotechnician“, members of the Serbian Armed Forces have given a series of lectures in elementary schools over the last few days on the risks of using pyrotechnic devices.
The lectures were co-organized by representatives of the Red Cross in elementary schools in Gornji Milanovac, Kuršumlija, Ralja, Sjenica and Belgrade’s municipality of Rakovica with the aim of ensuring greater child safety and raising awareness of the dangers of using pyrotechnic devices. The Technical Service officers, ordnance specialists serving in the Army and Central Logistics Base, informed the students of the risks of using firecrackers, fireworks, torches and other explosive devices commonly used on New Year’s Eve and at Christmas. Special attention was paid to teaching elementary school children about UXOs, proper conduct in case of coming across them and administering first aid in case of injury.
Such activities undertaken by the Serbian Armed Forces add to the overall citizen safety and build mutual trust and cooperation with local self-governments and civilian organizations. In this way, the Serbian Armed Forces show that, in addition to numerous priority tasks they need to carry out throughout the country, they are ready to implement projects of great importance for local communities.
