May 22, 2026

A large-scale event was held in the Blagoveshchensk village of Natalino and brought together about 100 volunteers from the regions of the Far East, Moscow and Novosibirsk regions.

The Amur Region was represented by four detachments at the exercises: LizaAlert of the Amur Region, PSO Foton, PSO Grom, PSO Sever 28. Together with the volunteers, specialists from the Amur Department of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia and the Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of Russia worked on the exercises.

For several days, the volunteers listened to lectures, and then began to work out the theory in natural conditions.

From the Amur State Medical Academy, the LizaAlert detachment includes two Alinas, Kryukova and Ibraeva.

"I first heard about the search party in the fall. Information was sent to our group that there would be exercises. At that time, a lot of guys left the academy, but in the end, there were only two of us left. I decided from the first lecture that I wanted to stay in the squadron. The day after the end of the exercises, I called and said that I wanted to join the detachment. I had not yet had time to participate in the real searches — they coincided with my work. So far, I help in organizing squeaks remotely, but I am ready to go out into the forest or urban environment to look for missing people at the first call," said Alina Kryukova.

Alina is a sixth-year student at the Amur State Medical Academy and manages to work at the ambulance substation in the village of Chigiri.
