"The municipal administration is declaring a state of emergency at the district level. This will help more effectively integrate the work of all services and departments," he wrote.

Two victims in the Takhtamukaysky District of Adygea have been transported to Krasnodar for treatment, the Kuban emergency response center reported on its Telegram channel. "Also, ambulance crews from the regional center worked alongside their colleagues at the scene of the incident in the region neighboring Krasnodar Krai," the publication notes.

The state of emergency gives authorities expanded powers

As a reminder, the state of emergency is provided for by Federal Law No. 68-FZ of December 21, 1994, "On the Protection of the Population and Territories from Emergencies of Natural and Man-Made Nature." Depending on the level of emergency, the head of a city, district, governor, the Russian government, or the president can declare the state of emergency.

By law, after the state of emergency is declared, authorized bodies are obligated to ensure the protection of the population and respond to the emergency. "As a rule, the introduction of a state of emergency involves restricting the personal and public rights of citizens. Access to the emergency zone may be prohibited or restricted. Activities that could lead to new outbreaks are restricted. For example, during a state of emergency for forest fires, visiting forests is prohibited. Evacuations may also be organized," the Kalmykia Ministry of Emergency Situations explained on its website on May 7, 2019.

The authorities' ability to allocate budget funds for emergency situations depends on the state of emergency , lawyer Maria Spasibukhova explained to the "Caucasian Knot" in December 2024.

"This involves deploying the required amount of equipment, the financial capacity to deploy various points, establish cooperation between various structures, and engage paid specialists. This does not affect the rights and responsibilities of ordinary people, local residents," she said.
