Navarra shopping centre stages fake 'Jihad' attack for security training
Monday, November 14, 2016 @ 11:04 PM
A SHOPPING centre in Navarra will carry out a 'Jihad terror drill' this week, just days after the anniversary of the Paris attacks which killed 130 people and of whom only one of the ISIS killers is still alive.
La Morea retail mall in Cordovilla will see 200 people attempting to act as calmly as possible and follow security workers' instructions in the early hours of the morning.
Centre bosses have warned they could 'make a lot of noise', and that sirens and alarms will be going off as well as the sound of fake shooting and explosions, probably for up to two hours.
The idea is to work out the best way to respond in the event of a Jihad terrorism attack – drama students will act as members of the public, whilst the Red Cross, Guardia Civil, Navarra's regional Foral Police, the Civil Protection squad and DYA criminal unit take up stations and practice how they would act if ISIS fighters opened fire on an enclosed area for real.
