“For an ordinary person, this is a desert, cold desert, and for units of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia, this land will become the main training platform,” the ministry said in a statement.
The Emergencies Ministry has been conducting the Safe Arctic exercise since 2021. Every two years, rescuers work out various scenarios of accidents in the polar night: from the evacuation of passengers from distressed ships to the elimination of environmental and man-made disasters. In 2025, more than 50 emergency personnel from almost 20 countries participated in the exercise.
