There were 13 people in the men's palliative care unit, of whom two died. The remaining 11 patients were evacuated to another unit, but later the medical staff decided to hospitalize them to prevent possible carbon monoxide poisoning. If their condition remains stable, they are planned to be returned back as early as tomorrow, noted Victoria Mozgacheva.
She also reported that in July of last year, fire safety drills were conducted at the facility in collaboration with the Ministry of Emergency Situations. All activities were completed, and there were no remarks. Currently, specialists are investigating the causes of the incident in the room, added the vice-mayor.
