US updates nuclear survival guide amid rising global tensions
The U.S. government has updated its nuclear attack survival guide amid rising global tensions, including the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war and threats from China. The guide includes fallout maps and emphasizes the importance of preparedness. FEMA warns that a nuclear explosion can cause severe damage and radiation exposure. It advises people to take immediate shelter, stay indoors for at least 24 hours, and stay informed about safety updates. Key safety steps include getting inside, removing contaminated clothing, and avoiding windows. Families are encouraged to prepare survival kits and identify nearby fallout shelters in advance.
