When receiving an alert on an Earthquake, we must act based on where we are, according to the following guidelines:
Indoors
• If you can leave the building within a few seconds - go outside immediately.
• If you cannot leave the building within a few seconds - enter the protected room and leave the door and window open.
• If you do not have a protected room (Mamad) - go out to the stairwell, and if possible, continue down until you exit the building. Do not use the elevator.
• Only if you cannot follow the above - sit in the inner corner of the room or under heavy furniture and protect your head with your hands.
Outdoors
• Stay out in the open and away from building, trees and electric cables and items that might fall and risk your lives.
In a vehicle
• Immediately stop at the side of the road and wait inside the vehicle until the earthquake is over – the vehicle protects you.
• Avoid stopping under a bridge, on an intersection, near buildings or under a steep slope for fear of collapsing, and distance yourself from it by car or on foot.
• Use signs indicating the direction of the escape routes to the marked gathering areas.
Important highlights
• Treat every earthquake as if it is a serious earthquake and immediately move to a safe place in accordance with the guidelines.
• Protect yourself as follows: Get down on your knees, stay on the ground and protect your head with your hands.
• If you are in a wheelchair - lock it and protect your head.
• If possible, take with you the family emergency bag you prepared in advance.
• Stay as far away from buildings, trees, electrical cables as possible, and from items that could fall and endanger you.
• Get updates from messages circulated in the media and wait for further instructions.
