The Ministry for Digital Development wants to develop a wired radio for emergency notification, writes Izbastia.
Its operation does not depend on local electricity supply, and the network itself is protected against cyber attacks. They suggest paying special attention to apartment buildings - about 70% of Russians live in them.
The initiative was proposed by the Russian Broadcasting and Warning Networks (RSVO), which serves Moscow, St. Petersburg and Sevastopol.
According to RSVO, the company's broadcast area covers areas where more than 20 million people live and work.
The department included measures for the preservation and development of wired radio transmissions in the updated draft strategy for the development of the communications industry.
