Taiwan Launches Civil Defence Handbook Amidst Rising Tensions

Taiwan has updated its civil defence handbook to help people get ready for emergencies like natural disasters or an attack.

The government wants people to be prepared, not scared, and is providing the handbook online and in print.

It teaches people what to do in crises and how to spot fake information.

The handbook is part of Taiwan's efforts to increase its defenses, especially with rising tensions with China, which claims Taiwan as its own.

The handbook includes advice on emergency supplies, radio use, and where to get reliable information, ensuring that citizens know how to react safely and reliably during a crisis.
