How to Locate the Nearest Shelter - The Emergency Backpack

The Civil Defense has published recommendations to citizens for emergency situations, including information on locating the nearest shelter through the SafeCY application or by contacting the Operations Control Center. Citizens are urged to locate the nearest shelter in advance and to be aware of procedures in case of alarm, such as siren sounds and announcements via radio and television. In the absence of a shelter, it is recommended to stay in a safe indoor space or, outdoors, to lie on the ground and protect the head. The Civil Defense remains in constant readiness and provides advice on creating an emergency backpack.
