UK to test emergency alert system, sending a siren to millions of phones to prepare for crises.
The UK government plans to test its emergency alert system, sending a 10-second siren to millions of phones to ensure readiness for emergencies.
Launched in 2023, the system was used during Storm Darragh, advising over 3 million people to stay indoors.
Similar to systems in the US, Canada, and Japan, it aims to warn of severe weather and other dangers.
The test date is not set but will be widely announced; phones will emit a siren and vibrate, and no action is needed from recipients.
