About riots and unrest
Civil unrest injuries concentrate at crowd boundaries and confined exits. The main protective action for uninvolved people is early distance.
Safety guidance
- Keep a safe distance from the affected area and let emergency services work unobstructed.
- Rely on official local channels for instructions and avoid amplifying unverified reports.
- Prepare a basic emergency kit: water, medication, torch, power bank, documents and cash.
