All over Russia, they secretly began checking bomb shelters that were mothballed after the Second World War, Bloomberg writes about this with reference to its own sources.
Civil servants quietly check basements and other protected objects and put them in order, in particular, organize repair work.
‘These steps are part of a much larger effort by the authorities to check whether the civil defense infrastructure is ready in case of a wider conflict,’ said one of the interlocutors on condition of anonymity.
The inspection of shelters in Russia was not officially announced. Obviously, it is connected with the failures of the Russian army in Ukraine. By the way, the Russians also decided to renew basic military education in schools starting next year.
In October, the Russian mass media wrote that in Moscow underground parking lots are equipped with sleeping places with heaters in case the premises are used as bomb shelters.
