THE TELEGRAPH: New 20-page booklet outlines range of safety measures in event of both military and natural dangers
France will issue survival manuals to prepare citizens for invasion and any other “imminent threat” to the country.
A new 20-page booklet reportedly includes 63 measures to help the French in case of armed conflict, as well as natural disasters, industrial accidents or a nuclear leak.
It will contain advice on how to protect “yourself and those around you”, what to do if a threat is imminent and details of how to get involved in defending your community, including signing up for reserve units or firefighting groups.
The French government denies that the three-part booklet is being produced as a result of Russia’s war in Ukraine, despite President Emmanuel Macron urging France and Europe to prepare to confront the “Russian threat” and the possibility of America disengaging from the continent.
If approved by François Bayrou, the prime minister, it will be sent to households before the summer, French media reported. » | Henry Samuel | Wednesday, March 20, 2025
