Nuclear Explosion Safety Guidelines

If America targets Mount Kolang near the Natanz facility with a nuclear bomb,

the danger could also reach surrounding areas.

Because in such an explosion, it isn't just the blast and heat

that harm people. Contaminated dust is also

produced, which the wind can carry to more distant places.

Of course, we're talking about a hypothetical scenario.

In a nuclear explosion, some soil and debris become contaminated

with radioactive materials, go into the air, then settle on the ground, buildings

and even people's clothes. This is called nuclear fallout.

Where this contamination reaches and how dangerous it is depends on

the force of the explosion, its location, and weather conditions.

Now, if something like this happened and we were in the area, what should we

do? If you see the explosion's intense flash, keep your eyes

off it. If you're outside and can't get

into a building immediately,

take cover behind a barrier, lie down on the ground, and

Cover your heads. After the blast wave passes, quickly enter

the nearest intact, sturdy building.

Do not stay outside to watch or film, and do not take shelter

in a car either. A car does not provide enough protection.

Inside the building, go to the basement or central area, away from

windows and exterior walls. Close doors and windows,

and turn off air conditioners or ventilation that draw air from outside.

If you were outside and there is a risk of contamination, remove your outer

clothing without shaking it, put it in a bag, and seal it.

Keep the bag away from others, and to take it

out,

do not leave the building. Then wash yourself with lukewarm water

and soap, and use regular shampoo without conditioner

for your hair. If you cannot shower, clean your hands,

face, and exposed skin with water or wet wipes. Use

bottled water and sealed food, and

Be prepared to remain in the shelter for at least 24 hours.

This does not mean the area automatically becomes safe after 24 hours.

For the time and route of evacuation, refer to official emergency announcements.

Follow them.

The best advice right now is to stay inside your home,

Stay inside the building. If you're outside, go into a building.

If the building is on fire or in danger of collapsing, you should

go to a safer shelter. So the most important thing people

can do is take shelter quickly and follow emergency

instructions. Review these recommendations with your families too

so that in an emergency, you know what you should do and

you and your families suffer the least possible harm.
