CCTV News: According to the website of the Ministry of Public Security, in 2024, the public security organs adhered to the concept of "active policing and preventing policing", continued to strengthen coordination and linkage with relevant departments, and jointly promoted and strengthened safety protection measures for drowning and risk-related drowning accidents to minimize the occurrence of drowning accidents.

The public security organs keep a close eye on key periods and key areas, scientifically allocate police forces, widely mobilize grassroots organizations, river and lake chiefs, volunteers and other group prevention and control forces, and target the patrol and patrol of key dangerous waters in key periods such as afternoon and evening. A total of more than 570,000 key water areas were inspected, and dangerous behaviors such as wild swimming, wild fishing, and water play were promptly dissuaded, and more than 5,500 people fell into the water were rescued.

In view of the prone to frequent drowning in the summer, the public security organs have carried out the "Summer Action" in depth. Combined with the World Drowning Prevention Day theme publicity, it has frequently pushed summer drowning prevention publicity videos and safety warning information, and organized the distribution of more than 9 million pieces of publicity materials of various types. The number of drowning accidents and deaths in the summer has decreased for two consecutive years.

In order to deepen the guidance of safety education for primary and secondary school students, the public security organs, together with the education department, jointly carry out special actions to prevent drowning of primary and secondary school students, and implement government leadership, home-school linkage, social participation, and departmental cooperation. Give full play to the role of the vice principal of the public security legal system, carry out publicity and interactive activities such as "entering the campus" to prevent drowning, and the publicity and education covers more than 65 million students, parents and teachers.

The public security organs also actively work with relevant departments to promote the establishment of a working mechanism led by the Party and government leaders and the participation of relevant departments, and continue to strengthen safety protection measures such as hidden danger investigation and rectification, water inspection and patrol, safety education and guidance, and emergency rescue linkage, so as to maximize the protection efficiency of key risks, key periods, key waters, and key areas.

At the same time, we actively cooperate with water conservancy and other departments to promote the construction of protective facilities in key water areas, strengthen the management and protection of water shorelines, and promote and guide responsible units in the water area to strengthen the construction of more than 150,000 "four one" facilities for anti-drowning in key areas (a warning sign, a lifebuoy, a safety rope, and a pair of life-saving rods), providing strong guarantees for scientific rescue as soon as possible.
