Livno Civil Protection receives new rescue equipment

The Civil Protection unit of Livno has received new battery-powered rescue equipment valued at over 41,000 marks. The tools, which include cutting and spreading devices, are designed for use in traffic accidents and difficult terrain, as well as for interventions in rubble.
