Lawyers point out constitutionality of ban on filming drone attacks

Banning the filming of drone attacks and their consequences, introduced in the Volgograd, Rostov, and Astrakhan regions, as well as in Kalmykia, Adygea, and North Ossetia, contradicts constitutional provisions guaranteeing the inadmissibility of censorship and the freedom to seek, record, and disseminate information.

As a reminder, a drone attack on "one of the enterprises" occurred in Makhachkala on October 22, the head of Dagestan stated. According to sources, one drone exploded over the enterprise's territory, damaging vehicles there with shrapnel, while a second hit a shopping center under construction. Eight drones have been neutralized in Dagestan, the Ministry of Defense reported that day. City authorities reported no casualties, and several schools have switched to remote learning.

On October 14, the head of Dagestan issued a decree prohibiting media outlets and internet users from publishing information about the consequences of terrorist attacks and sabotage, the arrival of Ukrainian drones, and the deployment of military and "critically important" facilities (bridges, fuel and energy complex facilities, communications, and industrial facilities) in Dagestan.

The decree contradicts the law on mass media, and it does not provide a list of critical facilities, increasing the risk of arbitrary interpretation of the document by security forces, lawyers noted.
