Cold weather and operation for homeless people continues in Uruguay

Montevideo, July 14 (Prensa Latina) The National Emergency System (Sinae) operation for homeless people and animals, which began on June 23, continues today in Uruguay, due to the cold weather and low temperatures.

This activity responds to the red alert level care for the vulnerable population and their pets, either in shelters run by the Ministry of Social Development or in evacuation centers with the participation of other ministries and public entities.

According to the latest survey, assistance was provided to 2,569 people across the country last night.

The Police carried out 199 voluntary transfers. However, they had to intervene in a case of contempt of court that led to a forced evacuation.

Fourteen medical assistance services were provided and four transfers to care centers were made.

Low temperatures and fog were recorded in the capital last night, so the operation will continue and its relevance is being reviewed daily.
