The Belarusian National Team participates in the world championships among men and women in fire and rescue sports in Saudi Arabia

A delegation of the Belarusian Ministry for Emergency Situations has arrived in Riyadh. The XX Men's World Championship and the XI Women's World Championship in Fire and Rescue Sports are taking place in Saudi Arabia from 27 October to 1 November. About two dozen countries from three continents — Europe, Asia and Africa — are represented in the competition. More than 200 athletes will compete for the championship title. Last year, Harbin, China, hosted international competitions among rescuers, where Belarusians became the favorites of the race, setting one world and two national records.
