A test of the alert system will be held in the Vitebsk region
On June 17, from 10:00 to 16:00, a planned technical inspection of the public warning system will be held in the Vitebsk region. Electric sirens will be activated, and messages will be broadcast via radio and public address systems of shopping centers, railway stations, and bus stations.
The inspection is carried out to maintain constant readiness and timely warning of the population about the threat of emergencies or their occurrence, as well as to inform about the procedure for behavior in the created conditions.
The Ministry of Emergency Situations reminds: upon receiving the "Attention to all!" signal by activating electromechanical sirens, specialized technical warning devices, as well as other signaling devices, it is necessary to turn on the radio receiver and listen to the emergency message about the current situation and the public's course of action.
Please remain calm and maintain public order!
