New alert system tested in Kharkiv

According to Bohdan Gladkykh, Director of the Emergency Situations Department, the city is now awaiting recommendations from the military and final approval to launch the system.

‘Today we tested the new warning system. It has several power sources, backup communication channels, and voice messages that allow us to specify the type of threat to the city. The test results will be handed over to the military for analysis. We are waiting for approval to separate the alarms and further integrate the system into the territorial and national alert system. Technically, we are fully prepared,’ said Bogdan Gladkikh.

According to him, this is an important step towards improving the security system in Kharkiv, which will allow city residents to live in a more peaceful environment and receive prompt information about military, natural and man-made threats.
