Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a new measure: a payment of 5 million rubles to employees of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation in the event of death during special operations in designated zones. The decree outlining this benefit was published on Portal legal information, signaling a formal state effort to support those who face extreme risk while carrying out sensitive duties. The announcement is framed as a protective pledge for investigators who operate under high-pressure conditions, where mission-critical tasks require swift, decisive action and resilience in the face of danger. The amount underlines the government’s intent to acknowledge the personal costs of frontline investigations and to provide a financial cushion for the families of fallen personnel, reflecting a broader policy stance on compensating law enforcement and investigative staff in the line of duty. This development is part of ongoing updates to ensure clarity on the scope of the benefit and the criteria that determine eligibility, including the circumstances of death and the zones designated for such operations [Portal legal information].
