Amman, July 25 (Petra) -- The National Centre for Security and Crisis Management (NCSCM), in cooperation with the Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship, the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC) and licensed telecommunications operators, has launched a series of tests of the country's national emergency mobile alert system across most governorates.

The tests are intended to assess the system's readiness to warn the public of crises, disasters and other emergencies.

The NCSCM urged the public not to be concerned upon receiving the test messages, noting that the alerts will be sent to mobile phones in both Arabic and English and will be accompanied by a distinctive warning tone designed to attract users' attention and ensure the messages are noticed immediately.
