The French government is reportedly planning to send a “survival manual” to every household in the country with instructions on how to prepare for an “imminent threat” including armed conflict, a health crisis or a natural disaster.
If approved by François Bayrou, the prime minister, the 20-page booklet will be sent to households before the summer, French media reported.
It will be divided into three parts with advice on how to protect “yourself and those around you”, what to do if a threat is imminent – with a list of emergency numbers, radio channels and a reminder to close doors and windows if the threat is nuclear – and details of how to get involved in defending your community, including signing up for reserve units or firefighting groups.
PDF please 🥺
What if the power goes out though?
The french version is awaiting approval, but the swedish version is available in english here - https://www.msb.se/sv/publikationer/om-krisen-eller-kriget-kommer-pa-engelska/
I’ve just read it and I recommend everyone to do the same if your country doesn’t have one. Most of the tips aren’t Sweden-specific and it’s generally good info to have.
There’s also a Dutch version of this (in English): https://english.denkvooruit.nl/
And Finnish version. Also available in English.
