• Create an evacuation plan: Draw a layout of your home/office, mark the exits and safe routes. Set a meeting point outside the building.
• Install smoke alarms: On every floor and in every bedroom. Check batteries at least once a year.
• Keep fire extinguishers handy: The "PASS" rule — Pull, Aim, Squeeze, Sweep.
• Reduce risks: Don't overload outlets. Never leave candles or stoves unattended.

• Assess: Small fire — use an extinguisher. Out of control — leave immediately.
• Call for help: Dial 112. Give your address, the type of fire, and any people trapped.
• Stay low: Smoke rises — crawl along the floor.
• Close doors behind you to slow the spread.
• If your clothes catch fire: "Stop, Drop, and Roll."

• Don't go back inside until firefighters declare it safe.
• Seek medical attention if you've inhaled smoke.

• Create an evacuation plan with routes and safe locations. Save emergency contacts (112).
• Research your area: whether your home is in a risk zone, and past flood levels.
• Protect your home: install backflow valves. Keep valuables on high shelves. Seal doors and windows.
• Emergency bag: water (3–4 L/person/day for 3 days), food, lights, batteries, radio, medication, documents.
• Monitor forecasts: "Warning" — be ready. "Flooding in progress" — act immediately.

• On an evacuation order: leave immediately. Turn off power and gas if it's safe to do so.
• Avoid contact with floodwater — it may contain chemicals, electricity, or harmful organisms.
• If you can't leave: go to the roof or an upper floor. Signal with bright fabric.
• Outdoors: 15–30 cm of fast-moving water can knock you down. 60 cm can move a car.
• In a vehicle: never drive through flooded sections. If water gets in, get out immediately.

• Return only after authorities allow it.
• Don't turn the power on without an inspection by a professional.
• Discard food that came into contact with floodwater.
• Pets: take them with you during evacuation. If you can't, release them.

• Safe spots: under sturdy tables or against interior walls. Stay away from windows and heavy furniture.
• Evacuation plan: exits, meeting point, the number 112.
• Secure furniture: anchor cabinets to the walls. Keep heavy items on lower shelves.
• Emergency bag: water (3 L/person/3 days), food, flashlight, batteries, radio, first aid kit, documents, whistle.
• Training: teach the family how to shut off gas, power, and water. Run drills.

• Indoors: stay away from windows, mirrors, cabinets. Don't use elevators.
• Outdoors: stay away from buildings, trees, and power lines.
• In a vehicle: pull over away from bridges and tunnels, turn on hazard lights.
• In a crowded place: don't run for the exits. Shelter under a sturdy structure.

• Aftershocks: stay alert — secondary tremors can be nearly as strong as the main quake.
• Gas and power: if you smell gas, shut it off and go outside. Don't switch on appliances until you're sure it's safe.
• If trapped: signal with a whistle or by tapping on hard surfaces.

Terrorism is not a military strategy in the traditional sense — it is a communication strategy. The word comes from the Latin "terror," meaning "fear."

The real target is not the bodies of the dead, but the minds of the survivors. The goal is to spread uncertainty and panic among large masses of people.

• Most are poorly educated.
• They go through months of indoctrination. By the time they're ready, they're in a "hypnotic state."
• Most are unmarried, though some have families and children.

• Mismatch: a heavy jacket or coat on a hot day — hides an explosive vest.
• The "small head" effect: the head appears disproportionately small due to bulky clothing.
• Shaving: a freshly shaved beard with lighter skin than the rest of the face.
• Scent: a strong smell of flowers or herbs (ritual washing).
• Bags and luggage: a backpack or case that doesn't fit the setting. Bombs are often packed with shrapnel.

• "Robotic gait": moves stiffly, turning the whole body.
• Sweat glands: excessive sweating that doesn't match the temperature.
• Hands: one hand clenched in a fist (detonator) or hidden in a pocket.
• Focus: "dead stare." Whispers prayers. Pushes toward the center of the crowd.

• Evacuate: leave the area and alert police as quickly as possible.
• If evacuation isn't an option: take cover behind a solid wall and stay there until police confirm it's safe.

• Route: know the exits. Don't use elevators. Plan ahead.
• Belongings: leave everything behind. Your laptop isn't worth your life.
• Others: encourage them to come with you. If they hesitate, leave them. Don't waste seconds.
• Call 112. Ask to be connected directly to a dispatcher.

• Barricade: lock and block the door with heavy furniture.
• If the door opens outward: tie the handle to something heavy inside.
• Positioning: the corner on the hinge side is the "dead zone."

• Mindset: fight for your life. Be aggressive.
• Improvised weapons: fire extinguisher, scissors, chairs, hot coffee.
• "Swarming" tactic: attack simultaneously. One person controls the weapon, the others target eyes, throat, groin.

The moment is critical. They don't know who the "bad guy" is. Their goal is to neutralize the shooter.

• Hands: raise them high with fingers spread.
• No items: drop everything — in the dark, a phone can look like a gun.
• Commands: follow them literally. "Get down!" — get down immediately.

• Risk assessment: stay informed about the situation. Know locations prone to protests.
• Safety plan: safe routes, shelter locations, a meeting point.
• Emergency bag: water and food for 3 days, first aid kit, flashlight, radio, documents and money.
• Training: recognize signs of rising tension — aggressive behavior, blocked streets.

• At home: lock all doors. Turn off the lights. Follow the news.
• On the street: move in the opposite direction from the crowd. Use small streets. Don't film aggressive actions.
• Tear gas: a wet cloth over your mouth. Breathe through your nose. Move upwind.
• Stuck in a crowd: don't move against the flow. Cross your arms over your chest. Move toward the edges.

• Don't go out until authorities confirm it's safe.
• Document any damage for insurance purposes.
• Seek psychological support if needed.

• Research the risks: nearby strategic sites. Local authority warnings.
• Safe room: an interior room without windows — a basement or inner room.
• Supplies for 7–14 days: canned goods, water (4 L/person/day), medication, flashlights, radio, documents, blankets.
• Tools: knife, rope, duct tape, fire extinguisher.
• Training: response to sirens. Evacuation signs.

• Air raid: when sirens sound, take shelter immediately. An interior room or basement. Don't look at explosions — they can permanently damage your eyes.
• Artillery shelling: basement or shelter. Lie down, cover your head. Stay until the shelling stops.
• Chemical/biological attack: mask or damp cloth. Close the windows. Seal gaps with duct tape.
• Street fighting: stay away from windows. Lie down behind sturdy furniture. Wait it out.

• Wait for official confirmation from the authorities.
• Check for structural damage and gas leaks.
• Provide first aid. Help children, the elderly, and people with disabilities.
• Manage carefully the available food and water.
