Emergency population warning

In a proactive move aimed at enhancing public safety and preparedness, Bulgaria is set to conduct a comprehensive test of its National System for early warning and notification of the population in case of air danger. Scheduled for April 1, 2024, the test will commence at 11:00 a.m. and will cover the entirety of the Sofia Municipality.

Facebook has unveiled a "safety check" tool to allow users to alert friends and family about their status in emergencies, a system developed after the 2011 Japan earthquake and tsunami.
