Mississippi Emergency Management Agency posts photos
The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency posted photos on its official Facebook page, the agency said. The images were shared as part of a social media update the agency made available to residents.
The agency, commonly known as MEMA, coordinates preparedness, response and recovery efforts for disasters across Mississippi. MEMA works with local, state and federal partners to respond to hurricanes, flooding, tornadoes and other emergencies that regularly affect the state.
Public posts that include photographs can serve several purposes: informing residents about ongoing operations, documenting training and preparedness activities, and raising public awareness about hazards and safety steps. Social media has become a primary channel for many emergency management agencies to share timely information with the public.
Details about the timing and context of the photos were limited in the social media post. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
