Preventing children with a dog from entering a shelter during an alarm: KMWA responds to an incident

The Kyiv City Military Administration called unacceptable the actions of a school security guard who on December 14 did not let two children into a shelter because they were with a dog. The KCMA called on each manager responsible for shelters to conduct an internal audit and explain to staff, UNN reports

Details

On December 14, five air raids were sounded in Kyiv, lasting almost 5 hours. During these alarms, the enemy fired several Kinzhal air defense missiles, including in the direction of Kyiv. One of the missiles was shot down by our air defense.  No one was injured by the falling debris. 

However, as the head of the KMMA, Serhiy Popko, noted, not all residents were able to get free access to shelters during the real threat to the lives of Kyiv residents. 

In the Sviatoshynskyi district of the capital, during the air raid, two children - an 11-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy - tried to get to the shelter in the school where they study. But the guard did not let them in, allegedly because the children were with a dog. 

This is an unacceptable case! Now I appeal to every manager who is responsible for a complex of shelters or for one specific shelter in the city - conduct an internal inspection and explain to the staff responsible for admitting people! Everyone should understand and follow the categorical rule - all shelters must be open during the emergency and accessible to all Kyiv residents without exception!

- said the head of the KCMA Serhiy Popko.

According to him, the military administration will take all measures, even unpopular ones, to prevent such egregious incidents from happening again.

As reported by UNN, the Kyiv City Prosecutor's Office launched a pre-trial investigation into the incident on the fact of "deliberate abandonment of children who were in a life-threatening condition and were deprived of the opportunity to take measures for self-preservation."
