Simulation exercise: preparing for an earthquake in Slovenia
At a training ground in the area of Logatec, Slovenian civil protection teams practiced excavation, concrete loads removal, wall breakthrough and rescue from heights.
These skills can help safely evacuate people trapped under debris of demolished buildings or other city infrastructure following an earthquake.
The destroyed car in the foreground is one of the elements that make the training locations as realistic as possible.
