British ministers plan to launch a nationwide campaign later this year to prepare the public for emergencies. People will be advised to stock up on food, drinking water, medicines and basic survival supplies, according to The Telegraph. According to the Prime Minister\u2019s Chief of Staff, Darren Jones, crises could disrupt electricity supplies, water supplies, mobile phone networks and the operation of shops.<\/p>\n
Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n The campaign aims to provide the British public with practical guidance on how to prepare for emergencies. This covers not only food and water, but also medicines and basic survival supplies.<\/p>\n Darren Jones<\/strong> He stated that people should be prepared for crises that could disrupt key everyday services. Among the potential problems, he cited electricity, water supply, mobile communications and shops.<\/p>\n At the same time, the government plans to draw up new guidelines for schools and colleges. The aim is to teach children about safety procedures during emergencies.<\/p>\n The campaign will therefore be aimed not only at households but also at the educational sector.<\/p>\n Next year, the British government intends to conduct large-scale exercises to practise responding to a potential \u00abhybrid\u00bb attack by a foreign state. Hundreds of civil servants will take part, practising their responses in a crisis scenario.<\/p>\n According to Suspilne, these measures are being prepared against a backdrop of a rise in the number of cyberattack<\/a> on the UK\u2019s critical infrastructure and concerns about possible Russian aggression against one of the NATO countries. The report links the risk to Russia, but the forthcoming campaign will focus on broader emergency preparedness.<\/p>\n\n
