"At the scene of the events, the parts and debris need to be selected at the scene from the mass of other remnants of destroyed buildings, vehicles, etc. It is easier for a person who has specialized knowledge and considerable experience to ensure the relevant processes. The specific color of the parts and debris, certain technical characteristics, design features, etc. can help to attract attention and highlight the right things," said the director of KSRIFE.
