The Home Front Command (פיקוד העורף) has announced a national drill to take place on Wednesday 22.06.2011 as part of Turning Point 5 (נקודת מפנה 5). Sirens will be sounded at 11:00 and at 19:00.
During the national drill siren
Citizens are requested to enter their protected places whether they are at work or at home. (Unlike the memorial sirens, vehicles on the road should continue as normal.)
This advertisement is part of the Home Front Command’s effort to raise awareness about the national drill.
