The Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia for the Kursk Region has added the state-of-the-art ZALA ZARYA-1 unmanned aerial vehicle to its arsenal. The agency's specialists have completed a full training course and are ready to operate it in operational conditions.

Designed specifically for rescue services, the device is designed for continuous monitoring and reconnaissance at any time of day or night.
