What is the latest safety situation in Tehran against accidents?

Ali Nasiri, head of the Tehran Crisis Prevention and Management Organization, in an interview with Mehr reporter, in response to the question of whether the safety of buildings is done as a government and by governments, or should it become a popular demand? This is a question that should be considered in the current situation given the importance of safety, especially against events such as earthquakes.

He added: “At present, the safety situation in many areas of Tehran is such that if natural disasters occur, there will be many problems.” For example, if an earthquake occurs and the buildings fall, the water network will be cut off and the health services become severe, the situation will be very critical. One of the important measures to be taken is the provision of emergency water tanks so that in critical situations, people have safe water. But even these measures are not enough, and in many cities, there is a need for further development of these systems.

“In this regard, efforts are being made to facilitate, solve problems and increase readiness,” he said. For example, emergency water reservoirs have increased to six times the first day, but it still covers the city's real need. The remaining two -thirds of this need must be added more quickly to ensure public safety against crises.

Nasiri said that if these measures should be solely responsible for governments or a collective and popular move in this regard: People can cooperate with government agencies if they do, and even in some cases Buy and maintain safety equipment. In other words, if people act in keeping with governments for safety, it will be better. Ultimately, immunization as a matter of sovereignty and popularity must be put together, and governments and people must work together to secure crises.
