Mississippi Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) posted photos on its official Facebook page, sharing images with the public through the agency’s social media channel, according to the online post.
MEMA coordinates emergency preparedness, response and recovery efforts across the state and regularly uses social media to share situational information with residents, local officials and partner agencies.
Photos released by emergency management agencies can provide visual updates on road conditions, floodwater, damage assessments or response operations and may help residents make safety and travel decisions. Officials often use such images to improve situational awareness and to direct resources where they are most needed.
The context and details of the images were not available in the source provided. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
