Thank you, Governor Glenn Youngkin! We are proud to represent the Commonwealth and appreciate its support. We always stand ready with the entire @FEMA urban search and rescue system to help when called upon.

Technical search cameras allow us to see around obstacles and into void spaces within collapsed structures. Here in #Aidyaman, Türkiye, the team uses many kinds of cameras including this one which uses a tablet to remotely visualize what the camera sees. USAID's Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance
