Emercom drones will not monitor barbecue-grilling vacationers

Fines only apply to violations of fire safety rules

The widespread rumors on the Internet that the Ministry of Emergency Situations will punish vacationers for grilling barbecue, monitoring the territory with drones, turned out to be false. Fines are provided only for violations of fire safety rules.

According to lawyer Maria Sviridova, reports of fines for grilling barbecue are written only to attract attention. In fact, fines are only related to the ignition of open fire on the sites.

In the summertime, a ban on open fire is often introduced in drought conditions.

State Duma deputy Nikita Chaplin also stated that vacationers can be fined for violating fire safety standards. However, there is no data that the Ministry of Emergency Situations will use drones to monitor whether people are grilling barbecue.

According to Chaplin, the issue of the legality of using drones to monitor private plots requires separate consideration.
