A civil protection and workplace safety drill will take place in Gospić on Friday, 13 November, starting at 11:00. The exercise will be conducted in the building of the Lika-Senj County (Ličko-senjska županija) at 4 Dr. Franje Tuđmana Street.
The Lika-Senj County has stated that this is a pre-planned activity and that there is no reason for concern. Residents may notice increased movement of emergency vehicles and emergency service personnel due to the drill, and such movement is also possible in the area around the County building during the exercise.
The aim of the drill is to verify the readiness and competence of participants to act in emergency situations, as well as the effectiveness of coordination between competent services. Particular emphasis will be placed on timely response, mutual cooperation, and the protection and safety of employees and other persons.
Participants in the drill will include representatives of competent services and operational forces of the civil protection system, as well as staff responsible for implementing workplace safety measures. Their participation is part of the regular checking of preparedness to act in situations that require a rapid and coordinated reaction from multiple services.
The County emphasises that the activity was announced in advance and that there is no cause for alarm. Residents are asked to show understanding regarding possible increased traffic of emergency vehicles during the time of the drill.
