The State Fire Control Service of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, within its competence, continues to take necessary measures to ensure fire safety in the country.

In this context, during the inspection conducted by the State Fire Control Service at children's entertainment center in Khirdalan city, Absheron district, it was discovered that there were numerous shortcomings in the field of fire safety, which posed a direct threat to human life or health, the environment, and the property interests of the state. So:

- the automatic fire alarm system was not installed at the facility;

- the facility was not equipped with primary fire extinguishing equipment;

- the electrical system was not installed in accordance with the requirements of the "Installation Rules of Electrical Equipment", and temporarily installed electrical wiring was used;

- the external and internal walls of the facility were covered with combustible facing materials;

- the real estate of the facility was not insured in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Azerbaijan "On Compulsory Insurance".

Thus, the current situation shows that as a result of the operation of the facility, the fire that may occur there at any moment will expand in a short time and make the tragedy inevitable.

Taking into account the above-mentioned, a decision was made to suspend the activity of the children's entertainment center in Khirdalan city, Absheron district, where gross violations of fire safety norms and regulations were discovered. A copy of the decision was submitted to the representative of the facility.
