| Ukraine empowers UkSATSE to maritime search and rescue operations |
  Dmytro Babeichuk, UkSATSE Director, became personally convinced of the readiness of UkSATSE jointly with Special air squadron of the Civil Rescue Service that is part of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine to conduct maritime search and rescue operations (S&R) over the Black and Azov seas areas within the Flight Information Region of Ukraine.
In the course of his working visit to Odesa Regional Branch, he attended the base of S&R aircraft that is available for tasks allotted to UkSATSE by the State.
A S&R MI-8MT helicopter crew of the Special air squadron together with a rescue airborne group is on duty at Odesa aerodrome to ensure prompt response to contingent situations. Specially equipped helicopter is readily available to perform flights and, if necessary, conduct maritime search operations, land rescue workers as well as provide aid to injured persons including their evacuation on board and transportation to medical centres or the nearest settlements.
“All the equipment necessary for rescue operations is on board and the crew is on standby alert. We became sure of that after visiting the air squadron base. Now I can confidently say that both the sky and the sea are under the control of Ukraine”, summarized Dmytro Babeichuk, UkSATSE Director. |
