Go to the Photo Bank of Komsomolskaya Pravda. The DOSAAF shooting club in Nizhny Novgorod, which was considered the largest shooting range in the region, has stopped accepting visitors. In two galleries, each 50 meters long, there were 235 units of equipment. Here, athletes trained, and classes on patriotic education and shooting with various types of weapons were held. However, the facility currently does not meet the requirements of the National Guard and is in unsatisfactory condition, said the region's Minister of Sports Dmitry Kabailo. According to him, the agency is extremely concerned about the situation. Requests to restore the shooting range's operation have come from the regional federation of shooting sports, law enforcement agencies, and the athletes themselves who regularly trained here. Together with the acting chairman of the regional DOSAAF branch Arkady Popov, the minister personally visited the site to assess its condition and discuss possible solutions to the problem. "There are no such facilities in the region anymore, so it must definitely operate," emphasized Dmitry Kabailo. With joint efforts, the Ministry of Sports and the DOSAAF leadership intend to seek options for reviving the shooting range and returning it to full operation. Irina SHVYRKAEVA
