A large-scale test of emergency alert systems will take place in all regions of Russia on October 1.
The Russian Emergencies Ministry will carry out a large-scale test of the population alert systems across the country on Wednesday, October 1. This was reported on Monday by the ministry's press service, according to Interfax.
"Comprehensive checks of the alert systems are carried out on a regular basis to ensure the operability of all elements of the population alert system and to increase the readiness of duty services to respond to possible emergencies," the Russian Emergencies Ministry explained.
It is expected that the "Attention everyone!" signal will be sounded in outdoor areas, and television and radio channels will broadcast information in the form of an audio or audiovisual message: "A readiness check of the population alert system is being carried out!"
The previous test of the alert system took place in March. The alert system is designed to promptly convey to the population information about the threat or occurrence of natural and man-made emergencies.
